NEW THINKING FOR THE NEW
MILENIUM
The last millennium has not
been a great success. We have made huge advances in science and technology, but have still
been let down by excellent but limited ways of thinking.
The thinking of the last
millennium has been concerned with'what is'-the thinking of analysis, criticism and
argument. We need to concentrate on thinking concerned with 'what-can-be'. This is
thinking that is creative and constructive and seeks to solve problems and conflicts by
designing a way forward. The emphasis is on design, not judgement, a recurrent theme in
Edward de Bono's work.
In New Thinking for the New
Millennium Edward de Bono offers a road map for the future, pulling together the previous
ideas that have made him a world expert on thinking, and including totally new material to
show us how and why this new thinking is the only way forward.
