David DiSalvo ujawnia ciekawy paradoks: to, czego pragnie m�zg, bywa niezgodne z naszymi potrzebami. M�zg człowieka lubi oszczędzać energię, ceni sobie rutynę i stabilność, więc często podsuwa rozwiązania, kt�re go uszczęśliwiają, a nam szkodzą. Dlatego wbrew sobie regularnie dokonujemy złych wybor�w, ulegamy pokusom, przypisujemy ukryte znaczenia banalnym zbiegom okoliczności oraz upieramy się przy błędnych opiniach, mimo że zaprzeczają im ewidentne dowody.
