Think! | Free Book
The world is full of problems and conflicts. So why can we not solve
them? According to Edward de Bono, world thinking cannot solve world
problems because world thinking is itself the problem. And
this is getting worse: we are so accustomed to readily available
information online that we search immediately for the answers rather
than thinking about them. Our minds function like trying to drive a
car using only one wheel. There's nothing wrong with that one wheel
- conventional thinking - but we could all get a lot further if we
used all four...
De Bono examines why we think the way
we do from a historical perspective and uses some of his famous
thinking techniques, such as lateral thinking, combined with new
ideas to show us how to change the way we think. If we strengthen
our ability and raise our thinking level, other areas of our life -
both personal and business success - will improve.
De
Bono is the master of the original big 'concept' book and his
enticement to us to use our minds as constructively as possible
should appeal to a whole new generation of fans.
