Our understanding of life is the sum total of the experiences and interpretations of the situations we hear of or have been a part of! With each passing day and with each experience, we form mindsets. These assumptions held by us are so established that it creates a powerful incentive within us to continue to accept prior behaviour.
This bias is also sometimes described as mental inertia or as a paradigm. We rarely question the significance of our understanding and our interpretation of these situations. It is often difficult to counteract the effects of our understanding on our decision making process.
The Best Seller – Essays and Short Stories, is a collection of such intriguing situations experienced by the author. These stories are based on real life situations we encounter and have been a part of. A sort of déjà vu!
These stories make you think in a perspective which is out of normal. They make you delve into topics that would make you re-think of your understanding and convictions of the good and the bad, the inequalities of the world and the presumptions with prejudice.
It opens a new dimension which forces you to think of the unknown, challenge age old perceptions and stimulates change.
