Delving into the hidden operations of thought, Edward de Bono examines how the human mind organizes, processes, and sometimes distorts information. Far from being a passive observer to our own cognition, de Bono argues, our perception, memory, assumptions, and reasoning form part of a complex machinery—one shaped by both biology and experience. Exploring topics like how ideas are generated, why we misinterpret, and how to better harness creativity and clarity, this book is a journey into consciousness and mental architecture. Whether you're curious about how to think more effectively, interested in psychology, or seeking a deeper understanding of the forces behind your own thoughts, The Mechanism of the Mind offers insightful tools and provocative ideas for anyone wanting to understand what happens “inside.”
