Can we still tell what’s real?
Every day, we scroll through a world where feelings outweigh facts and truth is whatever trends highest.
In The Power of Perception – When Reality Loses the Battle, Dr Orhan Dragaš exposes how algorithms, attention, and emotion are quietly rewriting our sense of reality. Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and real-world case studies, he reveals how digital platforms distort what we believe—and how to defend ourselves from manipulation.
This is not another book about “fake news.” It’s a roadmap for reclaiming your ability to think clearly in an age built on illusion.
“A must read for anyone who refuses to accept that truth no longer matters.”
— Professor Michael Goodman, King’s College London
“An outstanding guide, companion and inspiration.”
— Lord Geidt
