New Thinking for the New Millennium by Edward De Bono

This text argues that the scientific and technological advances of the last millennium have not been matched by advances in the way we think. The author believes that the emphasis in thinking on what is needs to be changed to what can be if we are to resolve the conflicts of the past. The manual is also an introduction to a very comprehensive coding system which enables us to communicate in a higher order language. Perceptions formed in the past at a stage of relative ignorance are frozen into language and force us to see the world in an obsolete way: this new language allows the creation and use of novel and complex concepts.
