Sinopsis de DESTINED BY DESIGN

We like to believe that our life choices, especially our careers, are the result of free will, rigorous education, and personal passion. We construct elaborate narratives to explain why we became doctors, lawyers, or engineers, completely ignoring the invisible linguistic anchors we were given at birth.
The psychological phenomenon of nominal determinism reveals a bizarre glitch in human cognition: we are statistically far more likely to gravitate toward professions, cities, and even partners that share phonetic similarities with our own names. This unconscious bias drives people named Dennis to become dentists, and people named Lauren to move to London.
Destined by Design dives into the fascinating intersection of linguistics, sociology, and behavioral psychology. It explores decades of research demonstrating how the subtle, repeated exposure to our own names primes our brains to seek out familiar patterns, heavily influencing our most critical life decisions without our awareness.
Uncover the subconscious power of language on your identity. Understand how your name has quietly steered your path, and learn how to recognize this cognitive bias so you can make truly independent choices about your future.
