Nonsense: The Power of Not Knowing by Jamie Holmes; Credit: Penguin Random House
Often times, we have difficulty determining how to best handle murky situations.
Ambiguity can be found in our professional, social and romantic lives. Whether you are trying to decide which restaurant to visit or which job offer to accept, Jamie Holmes explains that we are all “drowning in information.” A constant flow of information has made choices increasingly difficult to make -- even the simplest.
“Nonsense: The Power of Not Knowing” by Jamie Holmes tells readers how people make sense of the world.
Holmes includes helpful anecdotes in his book to help illustrate how to best manage uncertainty.
With new research discoveries indicating that learning how understand and manage uncertainty can be particularly advantageous, “Nonsense” serves as a great piece of literature to benefit from the unknown.
