How to Have a Beautiful Mind

By Edward de Bono

Being interesting is a skill — and it can be learned.

De Bono treats conversation and thinking as things you can practise deliberately, with tools for listening, agreeing, disagreeing and building on ideas. For a teacher, that framing is gold: it turns 'good thinking' from a fixed trait into something you can coach. Worth it for the chapter on how to disagree well alone.
