This looks at a new way of thinking about thinking! It examines how often there are many problems better solved by slower more intuitive thinking, rather than the linear logical process. Claxton shows that our unconscious intelligence is more productive than we think and that really thinking doesn't have to be a strain or effort because unconsciously we pick up on patterns and these patterns guide our actions.
