Blindness and Blind Spots
This chapter explores the concept of blindness, both in terms of physical disability and cognitive blind spots. It discusses cases of Anton's syndrome, where individuals are blind but insist they can see, and delves into the phenomenon of self-awareness deficits. The chapter also explores the Dunning-Kruger effect, feigned knowledge, and the detrimental impact of overconfidence in decision-making and expertise.
