Galef, Julia,

The scout mindset : why some people see things clearly and others don't / Julia Galef. - London : Piatkus, 2021. - 288 pages ; 24 cm

In 'The Scout Mindset', Julia Galef explores two different modes of thinking, the 'soldier' and the 'scout' mindset. Unfortunately, most of us naturally have a 'soldier' mindset, were we protect our beliefs aggressively and ignore any evidence that we might be wrong. But to be right more often, we need to approach ideas more like a scout. A scout surveys the land, seeking accuracy and understanding to find all the available information - good and bad - to gain a more truthful picture.
