"With deft prose and page after page of keen insights, Heffernan shows why we close our eyes to facts that threaten our families, our livelihood, and our self-image--and, even better, she points the way out of the darkness." --Daniel H. Pink

In the tradition of Malcolm Gladwell and Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Margaret Heffernan's Willful Blindness is a tour de force on human behavior that will open your eyes.

Why, after every major accident and blunder, do we look back and say, How could we have been so blind? Why do some people see what others don't? And how can we change? Drawing on studies by psychologists and neuroscientists, and from interviews with business leaders, whistleblowers, and white collar criminals, distinguished businesswoman and writer Margaret Heffernan examines the phenomenon of willful blindness, exploring the reasons that individuals and groups are blind to impending personal tragedies, corporate collapses, engineering failures-even crimes against humanity.

We turn a blind eye in order to feel safe, to avoid conflict, to reduce anxiety, and to protect prestige. But greater understanding leads to solutions, and Heffernan shows how-by challenging our biases, encouraging debate, discouraging conformity, and not backing away from difficult or complicated problems-we can be more mindful of what's going on around us and be proactive instead of reactive.

Rich moisturizer
I love this rich moisturizer, great for winter skin. I have received comments that my skin looks nice when I wear this. I only add a bit of bronzer for color and it gives my skin a dewey look and it lasts all day.

Smooth Skin
This is my favorite moisturizer. I’ve bought so many others and paid a fortune but this is the best! It hydrates and doesn’t clog my pores.

new fav
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
i’m always really skeptical of trying new face washes but I do love this brand and I’ve been using their lotions forever. It’s the only thing that keeps me hydrated so I thought I would give this a try I do have pretty dry skin so if I use that product alone with no moisturizer, of course I’m going to be dry, but with this wash and their lotion that I use, my skin is hydrated, I am not breaking out. This is definitely become a favorite for me, I do wear a little bit of makeup, but I haven’t tested if the wash itself takes off all the makeup I use their micellar water and then I use the cleanser and that works great!! even with that double cleanse as long as I’m using that lotion, my skin is not dry at all. I have noticed my makeup goes on smoother and I’m hydrated through these winter months. the gel texture is different, but it feels nice on the skin for me It doesn’t feel like you have to keep washing to get it off. A little goes a long way and I wouldn’t really say there is a scent to it but it’s just a very clean smell
