A sharp popular-science book that exposes ten common myths about the body, brain, stress, memory, wellness, antibiotics, and trauma, showing how bad biology turns human suffering into personal blame.

What People Keep Getting Wrong About Being Human is a clear, skeptical, and humane guide to the myths people repeat about the body and mind. Written in the voice of a biology professor tired of wellness slogans and cartoon neuroscience, the book explains why we do not use only ten percent of the brain, why people are not simply left-brained or right-brained, why stress is not just in your head, why positive thinking is not a cure, why detox products are usually marketing, why natural does not automatically mean safe, why memory is not a video recording, why multitasking damages attention, why antibiotics do not cure viral colds, and why trauma does not automatically make people stronger.
