Bold New Book, If Only We Knew, Offers A Framework To Understand And Solve Today's Social Issues

MANHATTAN, N.Y. & FAIRFIELD, Conn. - EntSun -- Evidence-based solutions to the greatest issues facing society are right in front of us, yet very few are being implemented. Why? The intentional spread of misinformation and the public's acceptance of this misinformation are to blame, according to Peter S. Baron–the author of a bold new book, If Only We Knew: How Ignorance Creates and Amplifies the Greatest Risks Facing Society (https://www.ifonlyweknewbook.com), and an undergraduate student at Fairfield University.

Baron's book asserts that the spread and acceptance of misinformation creates widespread public ignorance regarding the problems facing society, which intensifies the dangers (or risks) posed by those major social problems. The undergraduate student author offers a fresh perspective on how we should understand the roots of the risks of social issues, such as climate change, racism, mass incarceration, gun violence, poor health, and economic inequities. Baron augments his detailed analysis of our social issues by providing evidenced-based solutions at the conclusion of each chapter, making this book a must read for anyone who is interested in understanding why our social problems exist and how we can be part of the solution.
