THE THINKING LIFE: HOW TO THRIVE IN THE AGE OF DISTRACTION
Book ID/图书代码： 07835011B45845
English Summary/英文概要： Civility expert P.M. Forni shows you how good thinking leads to the good life
P.M. Forni is America’s civility expert. In his first two books he taught readers the rules of civil behavior and ways of responding to rudeness. In The Thinking Life, he looks at the importance of thinking in our lives: how we do it, why we don’t do enough of it and why we need to do more of it because, for Forni, serious thinking leads to the good life. In 12 short chapters, he gives readers a remedy for the Age of Distraction, an age fuelled by the internet, Blackberries and cellphones, all of which make constant demands on our attention, diverting it from one thing to another. After suggesting ways we can find time to think more, Forni shows readers how we can improve our abilities of:
*Attention
*Reflection
*Introspection
*Self-control
*Positive thinking
*Proactive thinking
*Effective decision-making strategies
*Creative thinking
*Problem-solving strategies
Just as Forni did with civility, he puts the importance of good thinking front and center in a book as simple and as profound as his earlier works.
