You're not in charge. And that explains everything.
Why do you eat the cookie when you promised you wouldn't? Snap at the people you love? Lie awake rehearsing arguments you'll never have? Make the same mistake for the twentieth time while knowing exactly why it's a mistake?
You're not weak. You're not broken. You're just being run by something you can't see.
There's a dragon inside you. It's 500 million years old. It doesn't speak English, doesn't understand logic, and doesn't care about your plans. But it makes every important decision you'll ever make - and then lets you believe it was your idea.
The Dragon and the Rider pulls together three centuries of research - from Hume to Kahneman, from Damasio to Haidt - and translates it into a framework you can actually use. Not just to understand your mind, but to work with it.
You'll learn why willpower fails, why arguments don't persuade, and why knowing better almost never leads to doing better. You'll discover what actually moves the dragon - and how to stop fighting a battle you were never going to win.
This isn't another self-help book telling you to try harder. It's a field guide to the mind that's really running your life.
