He uses a variety of examples from history and recent headlines to illustrate that people size up the motivations, emotions, and trustworthiness of those they don't know both wrongly and with misplaced confidence. 650 0 $a Psychology, Applied. 650 0 $a Strangers. 650 0 $a Conduct of life $x Miscellanea. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $x Miscellanea. 650 0 $a Large type books. 650 0 $a Trust. 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 941 $a 13 945 $a lpt 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430021035.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230203015323.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220129011954.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215020317.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20210604142309.0 $m 302 GLA 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20201106011026.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20200222010810.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20191113011501.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20191113010416.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20191107011739.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20191004010612.0 952 $l HHPC765 $d 20190911010224.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190910010934.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6AF871FED39011E9881EE71097128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
