In seiner provokanten Analyse der heutigen Multiple-Choice-Gesellschaft zeigt der renommierte Psychologe Barry Schwartz, wie uns die tägliche 'Qual der Wahl' schier um den Verstand bringen kann, und gibt kluge Ratschläge und Tips für den Alltag: Denn wer lernt, die eigenen Entscheidungen nicht ständig in Zweifel zu ziehen, der lernt das zufriedene Leben kennen.
Warum arbeiten wir? Die Antwort hat nichts mit Geld zu tun. Der renommierte Psychologe Barry Schwartz überzeugt, dass wir unser Verhältnis zur Arbeit neu definieren müssen. Schwartz nimmt uns mit in Krankenhäuser und Friseursalons, Fabriken und Büros, und zeigt, wie unterschiedlich Menschen ihre Arbeit bewerten und gestalten, welche Rolle sie in unserer Kultur spielt und wie jeder von uns seinen Weg zum Glück am Arbeitsplatz finden kann.
A reasoned and urgent call to embrace and protect the essential human quality that has been drummed out of our lives: wisdom. In their provocative new book, Barry Schwartz and Kenneth Sharpe explore the insights essential to leading satisfying lives. Encouraging individuals to focus on their own personal intelligence and integrity rather than simply navigating the rules and incentives established by others, Practical Wisdom outlines how to identify and cultivate our own innate wisdom in our daily lives.
