內容簡介

【誠品選書】

「聰明又有趣,是一種讓生活焕然一新的寶貴方法!」《賈伯斯傳》作者Walter Isaacson推薦!

作者巧妙地解釋了如何打破我們習慣的日常模式,不論是好是壞,都能讓我們的大腦重獲新生,並朝更好的方向重置。

你有沒有注意到,週一令人興奮的事情,往往到了週五就變得無聊了?即使是充滿熱情的關係、令人振奮的工作,和令人驚嘆的藝術作品,過一段時間後也會失去它們的光彩。就像我們容易忽視生活中最美好的事物一樣,我們也能停止注意那些可怕的事物。人們習慣了髒空氣,對自己的不當行為漠不關心,對不平等視而不見,比以往任何時候更容易相信錯誤的信息。

神經科學教授塔莉·沙羅特(Tali Sharot)和哈佛法學教授(及總統顧問)卡斯·R·桑斯坦(Cass R. Sunstein)探討了為何我們會停止注意周圍的美好與不那麼美好的事物,以及如何在辦公室、臥室、商店、社交媒體和投票站中進行「去習慣化」。

這本開創性的深度心理生活指南,基於數十年的研究,闡明了我們如何重新點燃快樂的火花、進行創新,並認識到哪些方面迫切需要改進。
這種突破的關鍵——重新看見、感受和注意到——是變化。透過暫時改變你的環境、改變規則、改變與你互動的人,或甚至僅僅退後一步,想像變化,你將重新獲得敏感度,使你能夠更清晰地識別不好的事物,更深刻地欣賞好的事物。

This “smart and fun read, and a valuable way to revitalize your life” (Walter Isaacson) deftly explains how disrupting our well-worn routines, both good and bad, can rejuvenate and reset our brains for the better.

Have you ever noticed that what is exciting on Monday tends to become boring on Friday? Even passionate relationships, stimulating jobs, and breathtaking works of art lose their sparkle after a while. As easy as it is to stop noticing what is most wonderful in our lives, it’s also possible to stop noticing what is terrible. People get used to dirty air. They become unconcerned by their own misconduct, blind to inequality, and are more liable to believe misinformation than ever before.

Now, neuroscience professor Tali Sharot and Harvard law professor (and presidential advisor) Cass R. Sunstein investigate why we stop noticing both the great and not-so-great things around us and how to “dishabituate” at the office, in the bedroom, at the store, on social media, and in the voting booth.

This groundbreaking and “sensational guide to a more psychological rich life” (Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author), based on decades of research, illuminates how we can reignite the sparks of joy, innovate, and recognize where improvements urgently need to be made. The key to this disruption—to seeing, feeling, and noticing again—is change. By temporarily changing your environment, changing the rules, changing the people you interact with—or even just stepping back and imagining change—you regain sensitivity, allowing you to identify more clearly the bad and more deeply appreciate the good.

"Look Again is a worthy addition to literature at the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and economics, making them accessible to the general reader."
—Shelf Awareness

“One trait of history’s most creative thinkers—from Leonardo da Vinci to Albert Einstein—is that they are able to look anew and marvel at everyday things that most people have quit noticing: the alluring blueness of the sky, the passage of time, the way a light beam creates a spot of luster on a leaf. Look Again can help us all look in a fresh way at things around us. It’s a smart and fun read, and a valuable way to revitalize your life.”
—Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author of Steve Jobs
