Hivemind by Sarah Rose Cavanagh

Hivemind: The New Science of Tribalism in Our Divided World is psychologist Sarah Rose Cavanagh’s exploration of how groups come to think, feel and believe as one. She looks at the hive mind, the shared consciousness that forms when communities align around common ideas, and asks how it is shaping today’s polarised politics and culture.

People have always defined themselves through their tribes, whether built on faith, heritage or simple shared tastes. Cavanagh examines what happens when those groups only echo our own views back to us, and what it might take to reconnect across the divides. Thought-provoking reading for anyone curious about psychology, society and polarisation.
