Reversing Misinformation
If you’re concerned about toxic misinformation, Reversing Misinformation: How to Help your Family, Friends & Community will show you how to have productive conversations with misinformed friends, family members and co-workers. Better discussions reduce friction in relationships, help decrease the spread of misinformation, increase vaccination rates to improve public health, and promote economic growth and national security. Reversing Misinformation provides specific techniques and strategies for preventing and reversing misinformation with the people you know, strangers, and community organizations.
While the book focuses on how to have productive one-on-one conversations with misinformed people you know, it also includes information about how people can reduce misinformation in their communities and via social media, and how artificial intelligence (A.I.) is influencing the creation and spread of misinformation.
