Alan Jacobs's "How to Think: A Survival Guide for a World at Odds" is a defense of why they are not as good at thinking and how rediscovering this lost ability might help us escape the tumult of modern life. Jacobs diagnoses the different factors that work against us to prevent us from thinking, forces that have only become worse in the era of Twitter, "alternative facts," and information overload, and debunks the many myths about what it means to think properly.

How to Think is part essay, part lament, and part guide to thinking more freely about the world. Jacobs states emphatically that cannot enhance our thinking by thinking precisely about thinking. Reading How to Think is like going through choppy seas in a small but sturdy boat with Alan Jacobs as your captain, and although you're eager to get to where he's bringing you, you're also grateful for the chance to just watch him do his thing.
