“The best book I’ve read that shows you how to apply the uncertainty about the future to the real world." Michael Shermer, Publisher Skeptic magazine.
To deal with the unexpected, you should neither rely on experts with theories like a square peg in a round hole nor act like a twitching fish out of water. This book offers insights on how to use knowledge, think, and make decisions in the face of uncertainty.
“This book is a fine text for individuals, a very thought provoking text for business persons, and useful heresy for academic sorts.”—Amazon reader.
It’s “a fine text for individuals” because it shows that skepticism triggers thinking, helping individuals to make better decisions. This should not be academic heresy, and you can see the reason for that in the following message by Max Born, a physicist and a Nobel laureate: “The belief that there is only one truth, and that oneself is in possession of it, is the root of all evil in the world.”
The book is also “a fine text for individuals” because it shows that individuals form groups and work in teams for their own benefits. This bottom-up model delivers more for everyone, but it is thought-provoking for some managers.
“Made Me Smarter.” “Life Changing.” “It is a very good, liberating book…” Readers’ tags.
