It would be nice if solutions came about effortlessly, but often they don't. Learning how to think outside of the box gives you the power to find solutions that other people just don't see.

Think Like a Freak by Stephen J. Dubner and Steven D. Levitt helps us to look at life's problems with a fresh perspective. In doing so, we begin to change the way we look at those problems in the first place. Once we start doing that, we notice solutions that we weren't able to see before. With real life examples spanning thousands of years, from King Solomon to a Rock and Roll icon, Think Like a Freak is a fresh take on the age-old question of how to solve a problem.

You will learn:

· Why it's good to admit that you don't know the answer to everything

· Why having the curiosity of a child helps you to think about things from a new perspective

· How to ask the right kinds of questions.
