HTML:<b>The hardest choices are also the most consequential. So why do we know so little about how to get them right?</b><br /> Big, life-altering decisions matter so much more than the decisions we make every day, and they're also the most difficult: where to live, whom to marry, what to believe, whether to start a company, how to end a war. There's no one-size-fits-all approach for addressing these kinds of conundrums.<br /> Steven Johnson's classic <i>Where Good Ideas Come From</i> inspired creative people all over the world with new ways of thinking about innovation. In <i>Farsighted,</i> he uncovers powerful tools for honing the important skill of complex decision-making. While you can't model a once-in-a-lifetime choice, you <i>can</i> model the deliberative tactics of expert decision-makers. These experts aren't just the master strategists running major companies or negotiating high-level diplomacy. They're the novelists who draw out the complexity of their characters' inner lives, the city officials who secure long-term water supplies, and the scientists who reckon with future challenges most of us haven't even imagined. The smartest decision-makers don't go with their guts. Their success relies on having a future-oriented approach and the ability to consider all their options in a creative, productive way.<br /> Through compelling stories that reveal surprising insights, Johnson explains how we can most effectively approach the choices that can chart the course of a life, an organization, or a civilization. <i>Farsighted</i> will help you imagine your possible futures and appreciate the subtle intelligence of the choices that shaped our broader social history.
