This title provides an examination of human perception, reality, and the evolutionary schism between the two. Do we see the world as it truly is? In 'The Case Against Reality', pioneering cognitive scientist Donald Hoffman says no? we see what we need in order to survive. Our visual perceptions are not a window onto reality, Hoffman shows us, but instead are interfaces constructed by natural selection.
