Thinking Habits. The Hall of Intellectual Trainers for the Brain

We live in an era when there is too much information, and ready-made answers are almost gone. Han Yan, the founder of one of the most influential publishing houses in China, suggests not to look for the next "magic pill," but to completely reshape our approach to problem-solving. Her book is a kind of "hall of intellectual trainers," where every reader will find tools for any occasion.

Han Yan asserts: knowing mental models is not enough; it is important to make them a thinking habit. She teaches how to launch deep, critical, flexible analysis automatically, like breathing. From combating incompetence to being able to negotiate with anyone about anything and building dialogue in chaotic conditions, the author shows step by step how to turn aimless "thinking" into daily "intellectual gymnastics."

After reading, you will learn the main thing: to use 28 mental models to hack your own standard thinking and stop fearing a complex world; to make your brain work on "new" settings; to not be afraid to change your point of view and to know how to ask the right questions.
