Summary

Wisdom comes with living a long life, full of rich experiences and can’t be learnt, right? Wrong. In Textbook of Wisdom, author Edward De Bono explains how you do not have to have lived forever to benefit from the experience of those who have. Full of thinking tools, guidelines, and principles, this "textbook" encourages the use of values and emotions to guide you through life without allowing them to enslave you. Split into short, digestible sections, perfect for grazing rather than devouring, Textbook of Wisdom is perfectly designed so you can return again and again, mining for wise words to carry through life that will open your mind to creativity and new possibilities.

Author Biography

Edward de Bono studied at Christ Church, Oxford (as a Rhodes Scholar). He also holds a PhD from Cambridge and an MD from the University of Malta. He has held appointments at the universities of Oxford, London, Cambridge, and Harvard. In 1967 de Bono invented the now commonly-used term "lateral thinking" and, for many people worldwide, his name has since become a symbol of creativity and new thinking. He is the author of Lateral Thinking, Six Thinking Hats, and Teach Your Child How to Think.
