I Am Right You Are Wrong by Edward de Bono
From This to the New Renaissance
The book argues that much of human discourse is dominated by a drive to be right rather than to discover better solutions, producing adversarial debating, ego-defensive postures, and poor decision-making. It critiques traditional logic-focused education and explains how the need to win arguments blocks learning and creativity, then proposes deliberately teachable thinking techniques — emphasizing lateral or parallel approaches, the separation of ego from criticism, and structured methods to encourage constructive dialogue — so individuals and organizations can reduce conflict, generate new options, and make wiser choices.
