Synopsis

We think every day, but what is thinking? What kind of thinking is good thinking? But we cannot give a clear answer. We often think, make decisions, and make judgments naively, intuitively, and subconsciously, but the conclusions we draw are often far from reality. They may seem reasonable but are actually absurd. Because it is easy for us to be self-righteous, make mistakes of "taking things for granted", and fall into the trap of thinking, leading to deviations, fallacies, illusions, mistakes... This book is an introductory book for understanding thinking fallacies and clarifying misunderstandings. The book is both small and large, all-encompassing. It uses microscope-like observation to focus on the common thinking errors that people make. It lists 55 common human thinking misunderstandings and quotes interesting life anecdotes, celebrity anecdotes, historical stories, love relationships, interpersonal relationships, investment methods, psychological experiments and other discussions. It vividly and concretely and eloquently points out where the thinking errors are and gives corrective methods. Let readers be familiar with the hidden traps of thinking methods, make fewer mistakes, and improve life and work efficiency.

Reader comments

If you have ambitions, you will not grow taller in years; if you have no ambitions, you will live a hundred years in vain. It's never too late to start, lest you never start. Keep yourself busy, and you will feel comfortable when you are free. It is difficult to change if it becomes a habit. Youth is for struggle. Become a better yourself and meet a better him. Instead of waiting for him to come and feel that you are not good enough, show him the best of yourself. No one will forget and miss you, they just want to be by your side.

This book is like a good friend chatting with us and telling us the possible pitfalls in our thinking. Just like the bias of judging people by their appearance mentioned in the book, it reminds me of some experiences in life. It is easy for us to judge a person based on his appearance. This book made me understand that I should not jump to conclusions easily and should think more. I think this book can not only help us make fewer mistakes, but also help us understand our own way of thinking better. It is really a practical book!

After reading this book, I opened up my own thinking and cognition. Everything in life needs to be thought about seriously. It contains too much philosophy. In the end, I still need to read more.
