Uncommon Ways To Reason A Roadmap For Smart Kids [Hardcover]

This book is a primer on how to transit the potentially superb but treacherous educational system that has evolved in twenty-first-century America. For those aspiring to become professionals and leaders, it provides detailed descriptions of some important career paths. It identifies the intellectual tools to develop superior reasoning power, to recognize misleading information, and to adjust to changing circumstances. It discusses what to study and why. It describes powerful concepts that are often missed in a standard curriculum, such as options, scale, and feedback. This book is not about fixing the educational system but about dealing with it as it is.
