"...an engaging and enlightening account from which we all can benefit."—The Wall Street Journal

A better way to combat knee-jerk biases and make smarter decisions, from Julia Galef, the acclaimed expert on rational decision-making.

When it comes to what we believe, humans see what they want to see. In other words, we have what Julia Galef calls a "soldier" mindset. From tribalism and wishful thinking, to rationalizing in our personal lives and everything in between, we are driven to defend the ideas we most want to believe—and shoot down those we don't.

But if we want to get things right more often, argues Galef, we should train ourselves to have a "scout" mindset. Unlike the soldier, a scout's goal isn't to defend one side over the other. It's to go out, survey the territory, and come back with as accurate a map as possible. Regardless of what they hope to be the case, above all, the scout wants to know what's actually true.

In The Scout Mindset, Galef shows that what makes scouts better at getting things right isn't that they're smarter or more knowledgeable than everyone else. It's a handful of emotional skills, habits, and ways of looking at the world—which anyone can learn. With fascinating examples ranging from how to survive being stranded in the middle of the ocean, to how Jeff Bezos avoids overconfidence, to how superforecasters outperform CIA operatives, to Reddit threads and modern partisan politics, Galef explores why our brains deceive us and what we can do to change the way we think.

Sehr interessantes Buch, das sich mit eigenen Glaubenssätzen und wie diese verändert werden können beschäftigt. Dabei geht es vor allem darum sich einzugestehen wenn man irgendwo falsch liegt.

Ich fand viele der Empfehlungen auch sehr gut umsetzbar.

Sehr sehr große Hörempfehlung!

Sehr spannend & hilfreich

This is the book the world needs in times of increasing partisanship, heated vaccination debates, and, well, people writing comments on the internet.
While I at first expected to quickly get the point of this audiobook and wasn't sure I needed to really listen to the whole thing, it did convince me otherwise: many insightful anecdotes, arguments, perspectives and tips make Scout Mindset a real gem that's worth every minute. Highly recommended.

A very important book

Keep listening just gets better. For me the book grew more engaging over time, to being fully hooked towards the end.
Thanks Julia!

I would say I have been following the scout mindset for most of my life and finding this book has allowed me to point and name it. Being aware of the scout mindset and the temptations of the soldier mindset is the manual to open mindedness I think I need to navigate this complicated world we live in.

Exactly what I needed

Short audiobook on how to be open to being wrong, understanding and weighing views, our own and that of others, and welcoming disagreement on subjects. Anecdotal examples, logical and sensible reasoning, but really nothing new or novel.

Short and somehow to the point, lacks depth.
