Richard Stephens became the focus of international media attention in 2009 for his research on the psychological benefits of swearing as a response to pain. Now, fresh from winning the 2014 Wellcome Trust Science Writing Prize, Richard''s first popular science book uncovers other pieces of surprising and occasionally bizarre scientific enquiry showing that what we at first perceive as bad can, in fact, be good.More pub conversation than science book, Richard''s writing style is very accessible - both engaging and humorous. Think wasting time is bad? Not always! Research shows that taking time out can help you solve difficult problems. And if you can''t be bothered tidying up, well fine, research shows that people are more creative in a messy environment. Swearing is rude but research shows that in some situations it can be a form of politeness. Swearing can also be used as a tool of persuasion.Black Sheep casts a slant on a range of human experiences from life to death, sex to romance, from speed thrills to halting boredom and from drinking alcohol (in moderation) to headily excessive bad language. This is a fascinating left-field tour of the world of psychological science. Get ready for the many hidden benefits of being bad that you really won''t have seen coming.

Aceasta este o carte despre sex, adicție, limbajul licențios și condusul cu viteză prea mare. Poate că ne simțim vinovați pentru aceste vicii, deoarece am fost educați în spiritul ideii că asumarea de riscuri este un lucru iresponsabil și rău. Dar chiar așa să fie, oare? Psihologul Richard Stephens ne îndeamnă – cu argumente științifice – să nu ne simțim vinovați pentru apucăturile noastre rele. Căci înjuratul ne poate ajuta să suportăm mai ușor durerea; practicarea sexului reduce stresul; alcoolul poate fi un lubrifiant al interacțiunilor sociale; și numeroase alte lucruri considerate rele au beneficii ascunse. Un tur fascinant în lumea psihologiei științifice!Dr. Richard Stephens, laureatul premiului Ig Nobel pe 2010 pentru cercetarea sa despre înjurături, este șef de lucrări la catedra de Psihologie, Universitatea Keele din Marea Britanie, unde conduce laboratorul de cercetare în psihobiologie al Școlii de Psihologi. A mai câștigat premiul Wellcome Trust Science Writing 2014.
