This book was very enlightening and I've added to my collection of foundational works. The book provides a fresh and alternative perspective regarding how we think.

NOT Lame at all.........Quite the contrary

This book is enlightening and critics who profess it is lame obviously never read it. It takes the reader on an excellent journey through the various roadblocks to the actual process of thinking and helps decide whether to keep those barriers up or dismantle them. If the latter, it gives beneficial instructions on just how to achieve dismantling.
