An enlightening and practical guide to the most powerful tools of reasoning ever developed, by one of the world's most renowned psychologists

Many scientific and philosophical ideas are so powerful that they can be applied to our lives to help us think smarter and more effectively about our behaviour and the world around us. Surprisingly, many of these ideas remain unknown to most of us. Drawing on his own groundbreaking research, Richard Nisbett presents these ideas in clear and accessible detail to offer a tool kit for better thinking and wiser decisions. Mindware shows how to reframe common problems - whether professional, business, or personal - in such a way that these powerful scientific and statistical concepts can be applied to them.

'A devastating and persuasive refutation of all those who believe intellectual ability is fixed at birth. Few Americans have done as much to deepen our understanding of what it means to be human.'
Malcolm Gladwell

Recensione:
A devastating and persuasive refutation of all those who believe intellectual ability is fixed at birth. Few Americans have done as much to deepen our understanding of what it means to be human. (Malcolm Gladwell)

Mindware should offer us all an opportunity to understand and react more intelligently to the confusing world around us. (Leonard Mlodinow The New York Times Book Review)

Friendly and practical and aimed squarely at the lay reader (Emma Smith The Sunday Times)

The bad news is that our intuitive ways of thinking about the world are wrong. The good news is that it isn't hard to set them right. Nobody knows more about these things than the eminent psychologist Richard E. Nisbett, who has dedicated his life to understanding the shortcomings of the human mind and to finding ways to fix them. This book should be required reading at every university. (Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness)

Compelling . . . Nisbett encourages us to turn these tools inward and test the legitimacy of our own easily swayed opinions and beliefs (Nick Romeo The Boston Globe)
L'autore:
Richard Nisbett is a professor of psychology at the University of Michigan and one of the world's most respected psychologists. His books The Geography of Thought: How Asians and Westerners Think Differently . . . and Why and Intelligence and How to Get It: Why Schools and Cultures Count have won multiple awards and been translated into more than ten languages.
