Think for Yourself

With the ever-increasing flood of data and stimuli surrounding us, we've outsourced much of our everyday thinking and decision-making to experts and technology. Too much, says Harvard lecturer and author Vikram Mansharamani, who starkly illustrates how we've lost our ability to think independently, and shows how we can regain self-reliant thinking in a transformed information landscape.Timely topic that will resonate broadly with a general audience.Rich, vivid stories ranging across business, sports, arts, and everyday life.Thought-provoking argument that will inspire readers to stop and think about how they view and act upon information in daily life.Well-written and engaging.Audience: Broad audience of managers, executives, and general intelligent readers interested in decision-making and in how technology and our data-flooded world have changed the way we think. In this sense, the book is in the vein of tech skeptics like Nick Carr, but offering a positive vision for how to regain self-reliant thinking.
