Everything in nature evolves by trial and error. We cannot avoid this
fundamental method of natural evolution, but our human advantage is that
we can think about and learn from the errors before trying again.
Trial, Error, and Success helps boost that advantage with 10 insights
into realistic knowledge, thinking, and emotional intelligence
The authors use real-life examples to show how successful thinking
avoids overgeneralization traps-the key trick is to focus on the
differences between a new circumstance and existing knowledge. You'll
discover:
- How the right thinking about a new circumstance creates new knowledge
by alternating sharp analyses and broad analogies.
- How to use this knowledge to grasp both the risks and the benefits of
the new circumstance and to make the best decisions.
- How to reduce personal risk and maximize benefits by collective
applications of the trial-and-error method.
It becomes obvious why machine learning and automatic actions cannot
replace human intelligence and decision making!
