Peter Bevelin begins his fascinating book with Confucius' great wisdom: "A man who has committed a mistake and doesn't correct it, is committing another mistake." Seeking Wisdom is the result of Bevelin's learning about attaining wisdom. His quest for wisdom originated partly from making mistakes himself and observing those of others but also from the philosophy of super-investor and Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charles Munger. A man whose simplicity and clarity of thought was unequal to anything Bevelin had seen.
In addition to naturalist Charles Darwin and Munger, Bevelin cites an encyclopedic range of thinkers: from first-century BCE Roman poet Publius Terentius to Mark Twain—from Albert Einstein to Richard Feynman—from 16th Century French essayist Michel de Montaigne to Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett. In the book, he describes ideas and research findings from many different fields.
This book is for those who love the constant search for knowledge. It is in the spirit of Charles Munger, who says, "All I want to know is where I'm going to die so I'll never go there." There are roads that lead to unhappiness. An understanding of how and why we can "die" should help us avoid them. We can't eliminate mistakes, but we can prevent those that can really hurt us.
Using exemplars of clear thinking and attained wisdom, Bevelin focuses on how our thoughts are influenced, why we make misjudgments and tools to improve our thinking. Bevelin tackles such eternal questions as: Why do we behave like we do? What do we want out of life? What interferes with our goals?
Read and study this wonderful multidisciplinary exploration of wisdom. It may change the way you think and act in business and in life.
这本是讲思维模式的,威力太大,尤其是应用在生活实践中时。六年前我买了,没真正理解,不理解什么是芒格所说的模式,更不会运用实践。最近对心理学有了新认识翻出来看了,顿觉太有用了。 不知道还有类似书的吗?我去亚马逊看了,没看到。哪位豆友能推荐吗?谢谢! 关键还是...
評分I like this book about its logical flow, gathering of people's thoughts and life examples. I also like how the book starts with evolution. The brain carries thoughts and ingenious thoughts are seen as wisdom. The explanations of how people make decisions i...
評分如果要说今年读到的最能改变我的思维世界的,除了<Thinking,Fast and Slow>,就要属这一本了。芒格,巴菲特的投资哲学想必很多人都不陌生,然而彻底解析他们的哲学,甚至延伸至生活的方方面面,这就是这本书的神奇所在。 全书总共分成4部分。第一部分侧重遗传学,历史等科...

評分如果你已经看过《巴菲特致股东的信》、《穷查理宝典》以及《自私的基因》,那就不用看这本书了。它基本上只是摘抄,这儿一部分那儿一部分的。说的内容都是对的,但就是觉得像拼起来的,没有自己独特的新思想。 这可能也是我看这本书比较慢比较犯困的原因吧。如果你希望这本书...
名人名言集錦,為何評分如此之高…
评分書上大部分觀點都是引用。內容淺顯。如果對人性,哲學,經濟和自身思維有一定的見解和思考的人並不推薦本書。
