At its core, the book is about psychological hacking: how political systems are designed to exploit human vulnerability to fear and social belonging in order to turn communities against others, justify mass violence, and conceal theft as self-defense. Zionism is presented here as the most urgent, real-time case study, yet the book’s framework applies to settler colonialism worldwide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on decades of research in neuroscience and extensive historical scholarship, \u003ci\u003eWired to Steal \u003c\/i\u003ecombines vivid storytelling, clear science, and deep moral urgency to reveal the playbook of settler colonialism, and to offer a roadmap for dismantling it.","brand":"Olive Branch Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48341194047743,"sku":"9781623715359","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781623715359_s600x595.jpg?v=1776095317","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781623715359","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
