The best things said about it
Your book starts with kind of a sad story about your own son thinking that this man might rob the plane. Can you take us through that?
I want to sort of separate racism from implicit bias because I think a lot of people will say, oh well, if you have any kind of bias it's because you have racist tendencies. But that according to the book, your book that I read, that's not true at all.
A lot of people are are down on the police right now and and it i don't suppose you've caught that in the news and the the book again written several years ago was includes the story of this police officer who who accidentally profiles himself.
I noticed that in the book people who work with children can tell babies apart more easily.
Why people recommend it
Biased: Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice That Shapes What We See, Think, and Do by Jennifer L. Eberhardt is a psychological examination of implicit bias, racial disparities, and how unconscious stereotypes influence human perception and behavior. The book was featured prominently on The Jordan Harbinger Show, where host Jordan Harbinger interviewed Dr. Jennifer Eberhardt and recommended the work to his listeners in the show notes. Harbinger discussed several key aspects of the book with the author, beginning with an opening anecdote about Eberhardt's son on an airplane and moving into complex subjects such as the distinction between explicit racism and implicit bias. They also explored startling studies detailed in the text concerning facial recognition, the ability of child-care workers to distinguish faces, and a striking real-world case involving a police officer who inadvertently profiled himself. Additionally, Jennifer Szalai referenced Biased on The Book Review podcast, discussing Eberhardt's research in comparison with other contemporary works on prejudice. Across these discussions, the book was recognized as a groundbreaking and eye-opening exploration of how the human brain processes race and how implicit biases quietly shape everyday interactions and institutional systems.
