  Fake news often sticks while the truth goes missing due to emotional appeal, cognitive biases, and narrative structures. Fake news is often designed to be sensational and emotionally charged, triggering cognitive biases such as confirmation bias and emotional reasoning, which make it more likely to be believed and remembered. Additionally, fake news may have compelling narratives that create memorable and vivid mental images, making it stick in people’s minds even when it’s been debunked.

   

  Disproved urban legends persist because they tap into deeply held beliefs, fears, or desires, and are often transmitted through social networks or repeated by trusted sources. These urban legends may have narrative structures that make them memorable and engaging, and they may also play on emotions and trigger cognitive biases, making them difficult to shake off even when proven false. As a result, fake news and urban legends can spread widely and persist in people’s minds, while the truth may struggle to gain the same level of attention and retention.

  A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

   

  The inspiring sequel to Wings of Fire. Over 3 lakh copies sold.‘It was like any other day on the Anna University campus in Chennai. As I was returning to my room in the evening, the vice-chancellor, Prof. A. Kalanidhi, fell in step with me. Someone had been frantically trying to get in touch with me through the day, he said. Indeed, the phone was ringing when I entered the room. When I answered, a voice at the other end said, ‘The prime minister wants to talk with you.’ Some months earlier, I had left my post as Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India to return to teaching. Now, as I spoke to the PM, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, my life was set for an unexpected change.

   

  ‘Turning Points takes up the incredible Kalam story from where Wings of Fire left off. It brings together details from his career and presidency that are not generally known as he speaks out for the first time on certain points of controversy. It is a continuing saga, above all, of a journey – individual and collective – that will take India to 2020 and beyond as a developed nation.

  Robert Chesnut

   

  • * An Inc. Magazine Top 10 Business Book for 2020 *

   

  “Stop talking about bringing your values to work and learn how to actually DO it!” ―Kim Scott, author of Radical Candor

   

  “The ethical expectation for companies is wonderfully changing from ‘do no evil’ to ‘do good.’ Companies and their leaders need to put ethics and integrity at the center of their mission and culture. Rob is an insider who’s combined doing good with doing business well in two iconic Silicon Valley companies. His book contains smart, practical advice for anyone looking to do good and do well.” ―Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn and author of Blitzscaling

   

  “No one has wrestled with more difficult business integrity challenges over the last 20 years than Rob. His insights will instruct you how to drive integrity into your culture. Now, more than ever, we need someone to lead a constructive, direct conversation about integrity in business―Rob delivers.” ―Meg Whitman, CEO of Quibi, former CEO of HP and eBay Inc.

   

  “Rob and I were peers at Airbnb and together we helped build a culture and public-facing brand with integrity as a core value. Not only was the work strategically brilliant but under Rob’s leadership, it was embedded into the very heart of the company. Rob brings creativity, empathy, credibility and a great sense of humor to this important topic ― he makes ethics human and fun.” ―Jonathan Mildenhall, cofounder and CEO, TwentyFirstCenturyBrand

   

  “Drawing on considerable experience with the nuances and circumstances of integrity violations at Airbnb, Chesnut offers plentiful examples of common integrity issues… He is especially good on such matters as enforcing consequences and handling situations involving violators who are high-performing employees. Valuable reading for companies that want to get serious about workplace ethics.” ―Kirkus Reviews
