{"product_id":"9781590513651","title":"What You Don't Know You Know: Our Hidden Motives in Life, Business, and Everything Else","description":"The unconscious sprang to the attention of the West a hundred years ago, and we are  still struggling to absorb its full impact. It was one thing to understand the concept,  to see it and believe it, but another to live with it, to take in fully its challenge  to our deepest cultural assumptions. Today, as we expand our understanding of its  reach, we are still coming to grips with what it means. This “new unconscious” is  driven by the identities we assume, the groups we belong to, the ideas we inherit,  the languages we use–all the elements that provide meaning and structure to our world.\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What You Don’t Know You Know \u003c\/i\u003eis about this emergent understanding, and how it forces  us to rethink our relationships with each other as well as our beliefs about what  it means to be a person, to have a self. It is for all those who want a better understanding  of the complexity of human motivation, whether as an executive faced with employees  resisting change, an elected official trying to forge agreements among competing  interests, a consultant brought in to restructure an ailing corporation, or individuals  struggling to understand their relationships and why they do the things they do.  All too often, our actions do not conform to our explicit intentions or to common  sense. We are more constricted than we think, but sometimes\u003cbr\u003e we are also smarter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Hardcover edition.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Other Press, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47133342040304,"sku":"9781590513651","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590513651_p0.jpg?v=1763803743","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590513651","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
