Book description
Why can't we eliminate terrorism by killing terrorists? Why can't
we learn anything about climate change by discussing the weather? And
what do fishermen in Turkey have to teach us about international
relations? Often we compound our problems by focusing on the apparent
crux of the matter. In Reframe, Eric Knight encourages us to step back
and observe our world from afar. By tackling problems from original
perspectives and discarding the magnifying glass, we will discover
hidden solutions. A remarkably innovative and compelling book from one
of the world's most exciting young thinkers, Reframe illustrates how
we can cast a fresh eye on seemingly insoluble difficulties by seeing
the wood for the trees.
Eric Knight is a bestselling Australian writer and economics
consultant. He has been billed as Australia's answer to Malcolm
Gladwell. Matthew Ridley, the author of The Rational Optimist, has
described his writing as bringing 'a rare combination of penetrating
intelligence, deep knowledge, and common sense - to make ideas come to
life'.
