"Think Again is a must-read for anyone who wants to create a culture of learning and exploration, whether at home, at work, or at school... In an increasingly divided world, the lessons in this book are more important than ever."
--Bill and Melinda Gates
The bestselling author of Give and Take and Originals 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.
ADAM GRANT is an organizational psychologist at Wharton, where he has been the top-rated professor for seven straight years. A #1 New York Times bestselling author and one of TED’s most popular speakers, his books have sold millions of copies and been translated into 35 languages, his talks have been viewed over 25 million times, and his podcast WorkLife has topped the charts. His pioneering research has inspired people to rethink fundamental assumptions about motivation, generosity, and creativity. He has been recognized as one of the world’s 10 most influential management thinkers and Fortune’s 40 under 40, and has received distinguished scientific achievement awards from the American Psychological Association and the National Science Foundation. His work has been praised by J.J. Abrams, Richard Branson, Bill and Melinda Gates, Malcolm Gladwell, Daniel Kahneman, John Legend, and Malala Yousafzai. Adam received his B.A. from Harvard and his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, and he is a former Junior Olympic springboard diver. He lives in Philadelphia with his wife and their three children.
读这本书的时候总会让我想到项飚老师的铁索桥的比喻 不论是个人、人际还是社会中的许多问题,当我们思维固化了之后,我们的观点就是铁板一块,一切新进来的信息对我们而言不过是为自我确认添砖加瓦 从而更进一步固化本就是铁板一块的观点 但是在很多问题上更应该是时时用新的信息更新我们的观点 拥抱并且接受那些不确定性 就像项飚老师说的铁索桥 有一块块木板 但是整个桥又是活动的 这边松下去 那边翘起来 应该是一个动态的不断更新不断变化的过程而不是一个终点 这本书好像也为我近半年的思考做了一个总结 以前总认为坚定的信念才是颠扑不破的 但铁板一块的信念崩塌的时候其结果也是摧枯拉朽痛苦不堪的 反而本身拥抱了不确定性 围绕一条主线但不乏变化的观点和信念才是更持久的
评分We favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We laugh at people who still use Windows 95, yet we still cling to opinions that we formed in 1995.
评分好读,有实用价值,但整体信息量并不大。有些实例比较牵强,不喜欢作者故作幽默。
评分第一部分讲rethinking的好处,对我来说更多是增加了确信,发现自己不知不觉被培养出了还不错的思维习惯,以后要更敢于相信自己的怀疑和新的判断;第二部分讲如何与人沟通、说服别人、启发对方rethink,收获最大,反省自己在沟通时常常自说自话,humility和curiosity还是不够,聆听和提问的习惯有待有意识地加强;第三部分,如何在组织中创造rethink的环境,有一些启发,但可能是律所的不是一个很需要创造力的、绩效导向的环境,所以感触不深,借鉴意义不强,也许对以后会有帮助。总体3.5吧,有些啰嗦。
评分也许对心理学专业来说,本书的观点并不新颖,但对于非专业来说,每个观点引出的建议都非常实用!作者实践自己的理论,通过实例以轻松幽默的语言娓娓道来,让人很容易接受。好书!

评分The entire book is mostly pouring ideas rather than giving much scientific explanation. It’s a bit cheating. I don’t feel the ideas are well thought. It feels like a lot of random ideas, very raw, premature ideas that occurred to you on a random afternoon...
评分断断续续读完了全书,开头的故事倒是还记得挺清楚的,那个firefigher的故事,能急中生智令人记忆深刻,而其他的救火员,在逃命的时候还没扔掉救火的工具,真是的被自己的identity给困住了,而我们又有多少次被自己的想法所束缚? 疫苗?关于疫苗在pandemic的时代,我们应该有太...
