Product details

In a world that rewards conviction and certainty, what if the most valuable skill you could possess is the ability to change your mind? We spend much of our lives surrounding ourselves with people who agree with our conclusions and seeking out information that confirms our existing beliefs, but Adam Grant argues that this "cognitive laziness" is the greatest barrier to our growth. In Think Again, Grant explores why we often get stuck in the mindsets of a "preacher" (defending our sacred ideas), a "prosecutor" (proving others wrong), or a "politician" (seeking approval), rather than adopting the mindset of a scientist. This book is a vital manifesto for 2025’s polarized landscape, challenging you to treat your beliefs as mere hypotheses rather than fixed identities. By learning to embrace the joy of being wrong and the thrill of rethinking, you don’t just become smarter—outdated ideas are shed like old skin, allowing you to stay relevant and resilient in an ever-changing world.

Key Features

Key Concepts 

  • The Scientist Mindset: Grant encourages us to lead with curiosity over conviction. A scientist searches for truth by testing hypotheses and remains open to new data that disproves their current theories.
  • The Overconfidence Cycle vs. The Rethinking Cycle: The book illustrates how "pride + conviction" lead to "confirmation bias," whereas "humility + doubt" lead to "curiosity" and new discovery.
  • The Dunning-Kruger Effect: A phenomenon where people with the least competence in a subject often have the most confidence. Grant explains how to find the "sweet spot" of confident humility.
  • The Joy of Being Wrong: Instead of feeling defeated when we are proven wrong, Grant argues we should feel relieved, as it means we are now "less wrong" than we were a moment ago.
  • Relationship Conflict vs. Task Conflict: Not all conflict is bad. "Task conflict" (disagreeing over ideas) is essential for innovation, while "relationship conflict" (personal friction) is what destroys teams.
  • Motivational Interviewing: A technique for helping others rethink by asking open-ended questions that allow them to discover their own reasons for change, rather than lecturing them.
  • Complexity and Binary Bias: We tend to simplify issues into "good vs. bad" or "left vs. right." Grant teaches "complexification"—the art of acknowledging the many shades of gray in every argument.
  • Escalation of Commitment: The dangerous tendency to keep pouring resources into a failing plan just because we’ve already invested so much. Grant provides tools to know when it’s time to grit and when it’s time to quit.
