Available to read in the library!
Overview
This book is about the extraordinary capacity to take pleasure in discovering, learning and understanding. It demonstrates how the practice of deep curiosity, persistent, self-reflective seeking of knowledge and insight - is key to the success of our careers, the happiness of our children, the strength of our relationships, and the progress of societies. It also argues that curiosity is a fragile quality, which wanes and waxes over time, and that we take it for granted at our peril: and shows you seven practical steps you can take to stay curious. Ranging from Leonardo da Vinci doodling ideas in his notebook to Google co-founder Larry Page's thoughts on the perfect search engine, through to the invention of the microwave oven, the advantages of your local bookseller over Amazon's algorithms and a reassessment of Donald Rumsfeld's defense strategy, this book is a rich, textured, exciting take on the most absorbing human trait of all.
