The Art of Thinking Clearly by Rolf Dobelli

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

I recently came across a book that captured my attention and admiration with its well-presented content. The book sheds light on 99 cognitive biases or errors in thinking that often influence our decisions. What sets this book apart is the author's ability to present each chapter with accurate examples that can be observed or even experienced by readers. The examples are relatable and provide insightful information about how we perceive the world around us. The author also provides conclusions and take-home notes that are useful in preventing readers from repeating the same mistakes in their thinking and decision-making processes.

However, while the book is informative and detailed, there is one minor drawback to it. The author often gives examples taken from other books and changes the characters and paraphrases a little instead of providing examples based on his own understanding when he decided to write this book. Despite this shortcoming, I found the book to be incredibly insightful and informative. It has helped me to understand the mistakes that I have been making in my thinking and decision-making process, and it has given me a new perspective on how to approach my thoughts and actions.

Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their decision-making skills and thinking process.
