About Reason: Books I & II

This book is based on the first five years of The Dr. Bo Show, where Bo takes a critical thinking-, reason-, and science-based approach to issues that matter with the goal of educating and entertaining. Every chapter in the book explores a different aspect of reason by using a real-world issue or example.

Part one is about how science works even when the public thinks it doesn't. Part two will certainly ruffle some feathers by offering a reason- and science-based perspective on issues where political correctness has gone awry. Part three provides some data-driven advice for your health and well-being. Part four looks at human behavior and how we can better navigate our social worlds. In part five we put on our skeptical goggles and critically examine a few commonly-held beliefs. In the final section, we look at a few ways how we all can make the world a better place.

About Bo Bennett, PhD

Bo Bennett, PhD

Author
Bo's personal motto is "Expose an irrational belief, keep a person rational for a day. Expose irrational thinking, keep a person rational for a lifetime."  Much of his charitable work is in the area of education—not teaching people what to think, but how to think.  His projects include his book, The Concept: A Critical and Honest Look at God and Religion, and Logically Fallacious, the most comprehensive collection of logical fallacies. His secular (humanistic) philosophy is detailed at PositiveHumanism.com.

Bo's interest in psychology began as an undergraduate studying marketing, specifically, consumer behavior.  After many years immersed in the business world, Bo returned to school and received his master's degree in general psychology.  He continued to the PhD program in social psychology, focusing on social, cognitive, and positive psychology.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

The Dr. Bo Show was a podcast I created to talk about issues related to critical thinking, science, and reason. Each episode was refined into a chapter in the book, and the book is a result of five years of the podcast. The podcast is no longer available, but I do plan on resuming it in the future.
Not very. This is not an academic endeavor that throughly covers every topic discussed; it is a introduction or overview of many different topics with the goal of not just educating but also entertaining. Check out my other books for more in-depth coverage of the topics in this book.
No. Book one was removed from distribution when books one and two were combined.
