Farsighted: How We Make the Decisions That Matter the Most by Steven Johnson

mysterious medium-paced

2.25

This was a slog. I believe I heard him speak in a podcast where it was singularly focused but the book attempts to weave a weird collection of decisions and a failure to see future outcomes in times where this wasn't laid out. Then, with what is shared, the personal move is laid out with zero mention of the diversity of thought he states importance not many pages before. 

If you haven't read in this space of decisions, cases and scenario planning, I hope you seek a different guide. If you have, then this is one to skip, unless you have an affinity for Darwin or bin Laden's raid. 

I couldn't get behind some of the jumps made - humans are as poor at exponentials and percentages as we are at forecasting.
