Being Wrong: Adventures in the Margin of Error by Kathryn Schulz

Kathryn Schulz proposes that once we find ourselves in the wrong, we should be optimistic. To be wrong, after all, is to depart from the facts into creativity, to become artists in our own lives. Error may feel like despair, but it is more akin to hope: "We get things wrong because we have an enduring confidence in our own minds; and we face up to that wrongness in the faith that, having learned something, we will get it right next time."
