"Adam Grant believes that keeping an open mind is a teachable
skill. And no one could teach this hugely valuable skill better
than he does in this wonderful read. The striking insights of this
brilliant book are guaranteed to make you rethink your opinions and
your most important decisions."
-Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Prize winner in economics and #1 New
York Times bestselling author of Thinking, Fast and
Slow
"THIS. This is the right book for right now. Yes, learning
requires focus. But, unlearning and relearning requires much more -
it requires choosing courage over comfort. In THINK AGAIN, Adam
Grant weaves together research and storytelling to help us build
the intellectual and emotional muscle we need to stay curious
enough about the world to actually change it. I've never felt so
hopeful about what I don't know."
-Brene Brown, Ph.D., #1 New York Times bestselling author
of Dare to Lead
"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. With warmth and humor, Adam Grant distills
complex research into a compelling case for why each of us should
continually question old assumptions and embrace new ideas and
perspectives. In an increasingly divided world, the lessons in this
book are more important than ever."
-Bill and Melinda Gates, co-chairs of the Gates Foundation
"Adam Grant makes a captivating argument that if we have the
humility and curiosity to reconsider our beliefs, we can always
reinvent ourselves. Think Again helped me learn about how
great thinkers and achievers don't let expertise or experience
stand in the way of being perpetual students."
-M. Night Shyamalan, director of The Sixth Sense and
Split
