How do we turn off the noise of daily life, turn on our brains, and begin, once again, to engage in that fundamental human activity known as thinking? In The Thinking Life, civility expert P.M. Forni looks at the importance of thinking: how we do it, why we don't do enough of it, and why we need to do more of it in order to live a better life. In twelve short chapters, he gives readers a remedy for the Age of Distraction, an age fueled by social-networking overload, compulsive texting, Internet addiction, and a never-ending stream of cell-phone calls. First, Forni shows how to put aside time to think every day. With the decks cleared, he then shows how we can improve our abilities of: attention, reflection, introspection, self-control, positive thinking, proactive thinking, decision making, creative thinking, problem solving. Just as Forni did with civility, he puts the importance of good thinking front and center in a book as lucid and profound as his earlier works. - Back cover.
