Sway: Unravelling Unconscious Bias

Using real-world stories supported by scientific research, Sway: Unravelling Unconscious Bias assesses whether or not unconscious biases are evolutionary hardwired into the brain, or if they grow from gathering the information that we see around us? Author Pragya Agarwal dives into the reasons behind our “unintentional” biases, using research from a range of disciplines including social science, psychology, biology, and neuroscience. Considering that experiments have shown that the human brain categorizes people by race in less than one-tenth of a second, or about 50 milliseconds before determining sex, getting control of these snap decisions is of utmost importance.
