 Rating:  - How we think can be "influenced" this book suggestsJohn Dewey book "How We Think" concludes that we can be taught to "think well". Ways to do just that are discussed.

What have I gained from this book? Everytime I do something, ... Read More Rating: - Basic ideas to develop your thinking skillsIt is very good to see this book appearing in new editions. This is a classic book about thinking. Dewey studies thought from the psychological and philosophical points of view and derives practical ideas for education. Reading this book, I was surprised to see the applicability of its contents to my main activity field, which is business management.
