#1 New York Times Bestseller “THIS. This is the right book for right now.
Yes, learning requires focus. But, unlearning and relearning requires much
more—it requires choosing courage over comfort. In Think Again, Adam Grant
weaves together research and storytelling to help us build the intellectual
and emotional muscle we need to stay curious enough about the world to
actually change it. I’ve never felt so hopeful about what I don’t know.”
—Brené Brown, Ph.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dare to Lead
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential, Originals,
and Give and Take examines the critical art of rethinking: learning to
question your opinions and open other people's minds, which can position
you for excellence at work and wisdom in life Intelligence is usually seen
as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's
another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to
rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives, too many of us favor the comfort
of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make
us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement
as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn. We surround
ourselves with people who agree with our conclusions, when we should be
gravitating toward those who challenge our thought process. The result is
that our beliefs get brittle long before our bones. We think too much like
preachers defending our sacred beliefs, prosecutors proving the other side
wrong, and politicians campaigning for approval--and too little like
scientists searching for truth. Intelligence is no cure, and it can even be
a curse: being good at thinking can make us worse at rethinking. The
brighter we are, the blinder to our own limitations we can become.
Organizational psychologist Adam Grant is an expert on opening other
people's minds--and our own. As Wharton's top-rated professor and the
bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take, he makes it one of his
guiding principles to argue like he's right but listen like he's wrong.
With bold ideas and rigorous evidence, he investigates how we can embrace
the joy of being wrong, bring nuance to charged conversations, and build
schools, workplaces, and communities of lifelong learners. You'll learn how
an international debate champion wins arguments, a Black musician persuades
white supremacists to abandon hate, a vaccine whisperer convinces concerned
parents to immunize their children, and Adam has coaxed Yankees fans to
root for the Red Sox. Think Again reveals that we don't have to believe
everything we think or internalize everything we feel. It's an invitation
to let go of views that are no longer serving us well and prize mental
flexibility over foolish consistency. If knowledge is power, knowing what
we don't know is wisdom.
