Penguin Books - Edward De Bono - Simplicity
We are all drowning in complexity. Hardly anyone uses more than a tenth of the features on our video-recorders. Legislation constantly introduces qualifications and amendments which keep lawyers in business at everybody else's expense. And an old woman in Holland recently spent a week in a shopping mall - she just couldn't find the way out. Yet although we all yearn for more simplicity, it seems astonishingly difficult to simplify our lives. Here, with characteristic directness, Edward de Bono demonstrates how it can be done.
