In today's world, truth no longer triumphs because it is correct-it survives because it is emotionally persuasive, algorithmically amplified, and socially acceptable.

In The Power of Perception - When Reality Loses the Battle, Dr Orhan Dragas explores what happens when perception overtakes fact, and when feelings outweigh evidence. With clarity and depth, he shows how digital platforms, reputation networks, and emotional echo chambers have eroded shared reality, leaving societies vulnerable to manipulation, mistrust, and political radicalisation.

Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and sociology, Dragas dismantles the illusion that technology is neutral. Instead, he reveals how algorithms and attention economics quietly shape what we accept as real.

This is not just a book about "fake news" but a guide to understanding how truth itself is made - and unmade - in the 21st century. Thought-provoking and urgent, it challenges readers to confront a fundamental question: can we still agree on what reality is?

Dr Orhan Dragas is a Serbian expert on security and international relations. He is the founder and director of the International Security Institute based in Belgrade. He is the author of numerous expert articles, newspaper columns, and books: Modern Intelligence-Security Community - Utopia or Reality, Two Faces of Globalization - Truth and Deceptions, The End of the Russian World - Russia, Ukraine, Balkans, Russia - From a Failed State to a Rogue State, and Ukraine - Crime Without Punishment.
