“The Knowledge Illusion is filled with insights on how we should deal with our individual ignorance and collective wisdom.” —Steven Pinker

We all think we know more than we actually do.

 
Humans have built hugely complex societies and technologies, but most of us don’t even know how a pen or a toilet works. How have we achieved so much despite understanding so little? Cognitive scientists Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach argue that we survive and thrive despite our mental shortcomings because we live in a rich community of knowledge. The key to our intelligence lies in the people and things around us. We’re constantly drawing on information and expertise stored outside our heads: in our bodies, our environment, our possessions, and the community with which we interact—and usually we don’t even realize we’re doing it.
 
The human mind is both brilliant and pathetic. We have mastered fire, created democratic institutions, stood on the moon, and sequenced our genome. And yet each of us is error prone, sometimes irrational, and often ignorant. The fundamentally communal nature of intelligence and knowledge explains why we often assume we know more than we really do, why political opinions and false beliefs are so hard to change, and why individual-oriented approaches to education and management frequently fail. But our collaborative minds also enable us to do amazing things. The Knowledge Illusion contends that true genius can be found in the ways we create intelligence using the community around us.

Perfect for your Sublimation Needs
Color: BCMY
If you're into sublimation printing—whether as a hobby or a small business—the Hiipoo Sublimation Ink Refill Bottles are a must-have. This ink performs exceptionally well with a variety of Epson inkjet printers (like the WF-7710, ET-2760, ET-2720, ET-15000, C88, C88+, etc.) and delivers consistently vibrant, professional-looking results across different substrates. The color vibrancy is outstanding. Blacks are deep and rich, and the cyan, magenta, and yellow are true-to-shade. The ink produces clean, detailed images on all kinds of sublimation blanks—from mugs and T-shirts to mousepads and phone cases. Whether you’re pressing on polyester fabrics or coated surfaces, the prints come out sharp and vivid. The bottles are designed for easy refilling, especially with EcoTank models—they fit well and fill smoothly with little to no mess. For other compatible Epson models like the WF series, the process takes a bit more care, but it’s still user-friendly. This ink has worked flawlessly with heat press transfers on a variety of materials. Once heat-pressed, the colors stay strong—no bleeding, fading, or smudging.The sublimation transfers hold up very well over time. After several washes (for shirts and fabric items), the prints remain intact and bright. It’s also a plus that the ink doesn’t clog the print heads if used regularly and maintained properly. Hiipoo Sublimation Ink is a top-tier choice for both beginners and experienced crafters. It’s affordable, reliable, and produces beautiful results across a wide range of sublimation projects. Whether you’re customizing T-shirts, mugs, or phone cases, this ink brings your designs to life. Rating: 5/5 – Excellent performance, vibrant colors, and professional results. Highly recommended.

Good ink
Color: BCMY
I like this ink, it has never failed me. You do have to be careful when using it or it will make a mess. It is hard to remember which needle was used for the color, the second time they are used. Washing them out still leave a small amount of color but not so much that it will change the color.

Exelente
Color: BCMY
Excelente tinta para sublimación. Los colores salen vivos y muy bonitos en las impresiones. Las botellas son fáciles de rellenar y compatibles con mi Epson EcoTank. Hasta ahora la calidad me ha gustado mucho y las impresiones quedan nítidas y profesionales. Muy recomendada para comenzar en sublimación
