Rethinking How We Think brings a cognitive science lens to today's essential human tasks. It addresses how any kind of future we would want to live in will require not just fresh ideas, but an essential kind of cognitive reordering, a necessary "growing up"in how we understand.

Rethinking How We Think is an exploration of the conceptual underpinnings of the future's needed new common sense.
