Healing Bias

Human bias developed from a survival instinct which flagged difference and change as a potential threat to resources. Yet even when resources are no longer in question, previous fears and biases remain—and with globalisation, the communication of these biases is perpetuated. In short, bias is not a question of one’s character, but a socially transmitted disease. The Crawford Bias Reduction Theory & Training approach is a systematic approach to reducing this transmission.

This book offers a blueprint for addressing bias in all facets of life, emphasising its impact on personal growth and community health. It provides a clear, structured method for recognising and combating bias, combining clinical insight with practical strategies for everyday application. With real-life examples and actionable advice, Healing Bias translates complex ideas into relatable, empowering solutions. Written from a clinical psychology perspective, it balances academic depth with real-world relevance, making it an essential guide for anyone looking to build deeper, more inclusive connections.
