What if there were a magic pill that could make you happier, turn you into a better parent, solve a number of your teenager's behavior problems, reduce racial prejudice, and close the achievement gap in education? There is no such pill, but story editing -- the scientifically based approach described in Redirect -- can accomplish all of this. The world-renowned psychologist Timothy Wilson shows us how to redirect the stories we tell about ourselves and the world around us, with subtle prompts, in ways that lead to lasting change. Fascinating, groundbreaking, and practical, Redirect demonstrates the remarkable power small changes can have on the ways we see ourselves and our environment, and how we can use this in our everyday lives. "There are few academics who write with as much grace and wisdom as Timothy Wilson. Redirect is a masterpiece." -- Malcolm Gladwell

Wilson's Redirect available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The premise of psychological debriefing is that when people have experienced a traumatic event, they should air their feelings as soon as possible so that they don’t develop post-traumatic stress disorder. But is this really helpful. #2 The writing technique, which people do in private weeks after the event, is more effective than CISD. It helps people heal, and it doesn’t cause any psychological problems. #3 The writing exercise helps people redirect their interpretations in healthier ways than CISD does. Our minds automatically interpret events and situations, and these interpretations are based on past experience and the context in which we experience something. #4 Our interpretations are rooted in the narratives we construct about ourselves and the social world, and they can be positive or negative. They can help us motivate us to do better, or they can lead us down a path of unhealthy pessimism.

"Know thyself," a precept as old as Socrates, is still good advice. But is introspection the best path to self-knowledge? Wilson makes the case for better ways of discovering our unconscious selves. If you want to know who you are or what you feel or what you're like, Wilson advises, pay attention to what you actually do and what other people think about you. Showing us an unconscious more powerful than Freud's, and even more pervasive in our daily life, Strangers to Ourselves marks a revolution in how we know ourselves.
