Deep Tradeoffs helps readers find more balance, peace of mind, and even friendship in a polarized, angry world.
In just 200 pages of conversational, even-handed thoughtfulness, it probes the eternally conflicting values and truths tangled up in our shared concerns and divided commitments. More than 300 short quotes - from Samuel Adams and Aesop to Oscar Wilde and Stevie Wonder - illuminate the competing, intertwined perspectives of sages, philosophers, artists, professors, pundits, and ordinary people with extraordinary insights. By entering the conversation, you'll fortify or challenge your own ideas about belief, truth, knowledge, ideology, peace, the subconscious, and much more.
Wise people see both sides of a problem and have a reason for choosing theirs. Rather than arguing, we can understand the tradeoffs involved and choose our path, with a fuller understanding of what we're getting and what we're giving up.
