Have you ever argued about politics and felt like you were speaking a completely different language? According to Jonathan Haidt, you were. In The Righteous Mind, he explains that morality isn’t universal; it’s a set of intuitive foundations that we value differently. This groundbreaking work demolishes the myth that we are rational beings and instead shows how our righteous beliefs bind us into tribalistic teams. Prepare to step outside your own moral matrix and see the other side with shocking new clarity.
