How Real Is Real? Confusion, Disinformation, Communication (German: Wie wirklich ist die Wirklichkeit? Wahn, Täuschung, Verstehen) is a 1976 book by the Austrian-American writer Paul Watzlawick. It is about communication and its relationship with reality.[2][3]

Kirkus Reviews called the book entertaining and intriguing, writing that "Watzlawick is a superb popularizer who couches his scientific data in anecdotes, paradoxes, games, conundrums, jokes and stories".[1]
