Book Summary

The Intelligence Trap: Why Smart People Make Dumb Mistakes is a nonfiction psychology book by David Robson that explores why highly intelligent people can still make poor decisions and fall for biases. Drawing on research from psychology and behavioral science, Robson explains how traits such as overconfidence, ego, and rigid thinking can cause intelligent individuals to ignore evidence, cling to false beliefs, or make irrational choices. The book introduces the concept of “dysrationalia,” where people with high IQs fail to think rationally in real-life situations. Through historical examples, scientific studies, and practical advice, Robson shows how developing intellectual humility, open-mindedness, and reflective thinking can help people avoid these mental traps. The book ultimately argues that wisdom and good judgment depend not just on intelligence, but also on how people use and manage their thinking.
