“The unphilosophical majority among men are the ones most helplessly dependent on their era's dominant ideas. In times of crises these men need the guidance of some kind of theory; but, being unfamiliar with the field of ideas, they do not know that alternatives to the popular theories are possible. They know only what they have always been taught.” KnowsMenNeedsKindIdeasFieldsTaughtTheoryCrisisMajorityAlternativesErasGuidanceDependentDominantUnfamiliarTimes Of Crisis Book:Ominous Parallels Source: Ominous Parallels

“Although it is easier to find information these days, it is easier than ever before to find misinformation, pseudo-facts, unsupported and fringe opinions, and the like. Children should be taught at an early age what constitutes evidence, how to detect biases or distortions in newspaper accounts, and that there exist hierarchies of information sources. In the medical field, for example, a controlled experiment published in a peer-reviewed journal is a better source than a blog by the Ginseng Growers Association, promoting the health benefits of their own product.” ShouldChildrenFactsAgeOpinionInformationExampleFieldsTaughtProductsSourceEasierBenefitsEvidenceAccountsMedicalNewspapersExperimentsThese DaysControlledAssociationPeersJournalHierarchyPromotingFringeBlogsDistortionMisinformationPseudoHealth Benefits Author:Daniel Levitin
