Audiobooks
How do news outlets choose which crimes to report on - and does it matter? What do Disney films teach us about who is good and who is dangerous? Can adverts really change how we think and behave? Underpinning these questions looms the spectre of bias; the hidden force that frames our thinking and skews the facts. This book will have you rethinking everything from pornography and pop music to children's books and fashion. Tackling the complex subject of bias head on, 'Skewed' investigates the hidden messages we absorb from birth. Looking closely at what the research can tell us, Caryn Franklin and Dr Keon West explain how our inner worlds are shaped by false information, media trends, and the brain's preference for patterns and stereotypes.
