''Teach Yourself to Think'' is the classic work of intelligent self-empowerment from world-renowned writer and philosopher Edward de Bono. Our happiness and success depend on clear thinking. But too many of us are compromised by confusion, trying to do too much at once, and not knowing what to do next. In ''Teach Yourself to Think'', Edward de Bono shows that good thinking depends on a simple five-stage process that anyone can learn if they try. It will enable you to assess your goals, sort available information, identify the available choices, make a decision and, finally, turn thought into action. This book offers brilliant advice for anyone who needs to be able to respond to and deal with a vast range of situations at work and in life quickly, efficiently and intelligently.
