For the first time, a rather arid \"a priori\" academic work fascinated the general public and immediately found its readers. Its author, Philip E. Tetlock, a psychologist by training and a specialist in political and organizational sciences, currently teaches at the University of Pennsylvania. EPJ has often been crudely reduced to the idea that experts, especially political experts, are as ignorant as others, and that their predictions are no more reliable than \"darts thrown at random at a target by chimpanzees\". This idea, although caricatured, is widespread, especially since it is all that the press has picked up on it. With this revolutionary book, he advocates applying to political decision-making the method that presided over the writing of the book, based on forecasting tournaments. Will EPJ be at the origin of the next democratic revolution?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e*Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shortcut Edition","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44934629589153,"sku":"9781008931848","price":27.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/5qdn5n-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1748231297","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/summary-expert-political-judgment-how-good-is-it-how-can-we-know-by-philip-e-tetlock","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
