Summary:
This isn’t enough time to Blink. It’s time to THINK! — just before it’s too late.
Outraged by the unpredictable manner of American intellect and tradition, Michael R. LeGault supplies the turn aspect of Malcolm Gladwell’s bestselling phenomenon, Blink, which celebrated impulse thinking over factual knowledge or critical analysis. If bestselling books are advising us to not think, LeGault argues, it comes as no surprise that sharpened, incisive reasoning is on the drop, leading our culture to incompetence and about Believe!: Why Crucial Decisions Can’t Be Made in the Blink of the Eye failure.
• Permissive parenting and low specifications that have caused an academic turmoil among our kids — body weights rise while levels plummet
• A culture of image and instant gratification, fed by reality shows and computer games, that has rendered interest of the mind and spirit basically obsolete
• Stress, aversion to taking risks, and therapy that are replacing the traditional American ‘can do’ mind-set
Definately not perpetuating the stereotype of the complacent American, LeGault maintains that Us citizens are abundantly gifted having the ability to fulfill our nation’s very best potential starting today but we are in need of smart teachers, health care workers, sales reps, students, technicians, and leaders to make it happen. A bracing wake-up contact to America, THINK! delivers a no-holds-barred prescription for reversing the erosion of American civilization.
