Academic text that is relatable to the real world. We all need to know how to better solve problems in this complex technologically advanced world. This book tackles many issues that we are seeing in this world, and the kind of people we need for the future to find solutions.

This book reads like an academic problem-solving book, covering a lot of traditional philosophies and approaches.Many of the techniques covered in the book are foundational for newer ones that incorporate more brain science and research. The more techniques you are aware of, the more you'll find what works for you, so I would recommend this book to expose yourself to different ideas. But don't stop with this book.
