Críticas

'Rolf Dobelli is brilliant at converting evidence from scientific research into practical steps that improve personal outcomes.' * Robert Cialdini, author of the international bestseller INFLUENCE * "Rolf Dobelli has a gift for identifying the best ideas in the world and then putting them together in ways that make the whole even more valuable than the sum of the parts. He's done it for the art of thinking. Now he does it for the art of living." * Jonathan Haidt, author of the New York Times bestseller The Righteous Mind * 'Rolf Dobelli is a virtuosic synthesizer of ideas.

Reseña del editor

The indispensable new work from the author of the international and Sunday Times bestseller The Art of Thinking Clearly Have you ever... * Spent too long on a powerpoint presentation? * Lost sight of what makes you happy? * Failed to reach a long-term goal? * Become infuriated by queuing, tax or parking tickets? * Broken a promise you knew you'd keep? Since the dawn of civilization, we've been asking ourselves what it means to live a good life: how should I live, what will truly make be happy, how much should I earn, how should I spend my time? In the absence of a single simple answer, what we need is a toolkit of mental models, a guide to practical living. In The Art of the Good Life, you'll find fifty-two intellectual shortcuts for wiser thinking and better decisions, at home and at work. They may not guarantee you a good life, but they'll give you a better chance.
