How to Be Wrong Less Often

Millennia of human civilization. Thirteen mental models. One question: How can you be wrong less often?

You’re living through the most information-rich moment in human history. At the same time, you’re being lied to more skillfully than any generation before you. None of that is going to change. What can change is how well you think.

How to Be Wrong Less Often introduces thirteen mental models that are universally valuable. Time and again, these models have emerged globally whenever humanity has tried to think clearly in turbulent times. Drawing on stories from history and modern life, this book turns abstract ideas into concrete questions you can use to sharpen your daily thinking. Each chapter concludes with a practical exercise you can try immediately, whether you are weighing a career choice, working through a problem, or deciding what to believe.

Think for yourself. Then help someone else do the same.
