"That's not right" for every possible answer

All that the pen does is say, "Incorrect", "Sorry", etc. with any answer you choose, regardless of accuracy. Waste of money.

The first two exams contained not one, but several questions for which there was no correct answer choice. I did not have the patience to determine if the converse held; my son was scored correct by the answer sheet, but was in fact wrong. Skip these products.

Do not buy this inaccurate book!  By page 13 you will have learned to misuse reticent, laconic, and accost.  There is a mistake in the key for the review on page 12.  Using this book will do students more harm than good.  The format is wonderful, but the flaws in word usage are unforgivable.  It is appalling that this book was rated a number one best seller in its category on Amazon.

There are incorrect items written about in a number of the topics discussed in this book. When you buy a book you want to know you paid for correct advice and information. Some items were helpful but I wonder how many other issues are wrong that I didn't check into further.

Bought this for my baseball fanatical family. The questions, when accurate, are very basic for the true baseball fan. Unfortunately, after playing three innings we came across at least 3 incorrect answers. Game went back in the box and probably won't come out of the closet again. Huge bummer...

I have lived in Cuenca for 2 1/2 years, and I recently married an Ecuadorian.  This book is all wrong for a myriad of reasons.  The author, loosely speaking, is a cynical paranoid.  Why does he live in a place where he is so unhappy?  Most of the book is over stated, or just plain wrong. Cuenca is a very safe city, safer than most others in South America.  The author makes it sond crime-ridden and dangerous.  This is simply false.  The author should return to the US and move to Chicago or Detroit.t

The author should really post an errata. There are several puzzles with errors and it is pretty annoying that a correction is not available anywhere.

For example, one puzzle (#243) needs the reader to figure out the sizes of smaller squares inside a bigger square. The given length of one side of the big square adds up to to 176. But according to the solution, the length of another side of the big square (that the reader needs to figure out) is 177. How is 176 equal to 177? How is this a square? The solution is completely wrong. Errors like this are frustrating occur in several places throughout the book.

Quite a collection of answers to very complicated questions.

As I was flipping thru the book, I noticed two questions and answers, I know by my schooling and as a fact that the answers in the book was incorrect.  If two I spot that quickly were wrong, how about all the other answers - will they be correct or wrong when I take the test....... clean it up....

Bought this book for my daughter whose tutor discovered that the answer provided on at least one question was incorrect (and demonstrated how it was incorrect).

Nothing was wrong with the object, but it was the wrong one for me.  Maybe saying which product is not good for would help.g

Look around. We are obviously getting it wrong. In my view, John Eldredge is onto something. I don't agree with everything he says, but I'm grateful he's saying it. And I am going to make some changes in my life.

Not everything is what you think with this book it will challenge your morals bring you to think about what really is right and what is really wrong.

I think the number of questions for this book is a really good starting point to practice, but there are so many inaccuracies in the math portion that makes you wonder how accurate the answer key really is. I've seen at least a handful of questions that state a multiple choice answer as incorrect, but in the full-explanation would hypocritically give the same answer with a different multiple choice.

This book has too many errors to take seriously. My professor lists new corrections for different sections and homework assignments every class, since otherwise certain problems are impossible to solve. Theorems are also flawed, or even represent OTHER theorems. For the fourth edition of a book, this is unacceptable to me.

Most textbooks of this sort that I have used in the past include a small appendix in the back where the answers(and only the answers) are listed for a subset of questions. This book does not have that section because they sell it separately as a solutions "manual"(despite being partial answers to only part of the questions). Having purchased both book and manual, I would suggest avoiding this unless it is absolutely required for a class.

There are wrong questions with no answer choices that can be correct and many other errors. I had to return the book. Absolutely worthless for such a hefty price.

Most people go through life thinking they are almost always right about pretty much everything virtually all the time. The reality is we are often wrong about things from the trivial to the universal. Being Wrong explores why we are wrong so often and how it is helpful to us.

Katheryn Shulz  breaks down various sources of error, from sensory perception and cognitive interpretation to group prejudices and cultural biases. She also looks at the mental, psychological and social consequences of both being wrong and knowing you are wrong. She had so many categories of how we get things wrong as well as compound combinations of error, I began to wonder how we ever get anything right. I also marveled at humanitys ability to remain in existence considering how massive some of our mistakes are.

In the end, Being Wrong suggests error is a fundamental part of thinking. Developing the ability to use the brain also develops the ability to misuse it. Shulz took time to focus on the positive aspects of being wrong, including innovation, learning and adaptive behavior. She didn't spend anytime discussing situations where subjective opinion is the basis of being right or when the right answer cant be known or situations where people continued to maintain the wrong stance when it was in their best long term interests. Still, Being Wrong is an insightful look an ignored part of our mental processes. If you decide not to read it you will, once again, be wrong.
