[The first book]

Title: The Most Moving Life Experience of a Business Man Who Lived a Secluded Life in the Mountains I May Be Wrong

Author: Bjorn Nattico Lindeblad (Author)

Publisher: Sunmark Publishing

The number of stamps is crazy....It's a really soothing book.

I was moved by the awareness and insights that I gained in the process of becoming a monk.

What the author, a former economist, learned from the experience of becoming a monk and noticed. There is conflict because it is immature. If you read it, you will know the thoughts that capture things and you will be less judgmental.

"The greatest value I have come to find in my 17 years of training is that I no longer believe that my thoughts are right."

Please read this book for the process leading up to that.

[The second book]

Title: The Philosophy of Narrative Criticism: To Re-Play My Life

Author: Yuki Namba

Publisher: Kodansha

It's a book whose values collapse depending on the reader. MBTI, anime, recommendation...We can live because we have a story, but we are too vulnerable to negative aspects. When you read it, you will notice both the benefits and the evils of the story.

[The third book]

Society Silently Curses You: The Invisible Forces That Erode Thoughts and Feelings

Author: Tasuku Suzuki

Publisher: Shogakukan Creative

A good book that consumes too much attachment. Common sense and beliefs are all destroyed... !!!

For example, what if all of these are curses?

Japan is over.

People live to be happy.

I don't need growth anymore.

Work with passion.

Life is determined by heredity.

Actually, they may be convinced by the statements of various experts.

It is also said that "humans are creatures who accept incorrect information even if they are told the same thing by three people."

This book puts a mess and a scalpel into the human thought that can be taken as such a curse.

What I thought again is the negative effect of oversimplifying complex events. Since there are many variables in the economy, it is easy to fall into the trap of simplification. What I felt after reading this book.

If you like the best-selling book Factfulness, you will love this book too.

[The fourth book]

Title: Introduction to Scientific Thinking

Author: Ryo Uehara

Publisher: Kodansha

I don't know of any more introductory books on this subject than this book.

"What does it mean to think scientifically?" It is a superb book that teaches carefully.

Be able to discern the difference between quality and suspicious information in everyday life and work. Get scientific thinking for that.

When I was reading it, I thought that it stimulates intellectual curiosity by understanding how it is defined in science and whether it is experimenting. I want people who continue to learn every day to read it.

The power to think is trained by science.

[The fifth book]

Title: First Philosophical Thinking

Author: Kazunori Tomano (Author)

Publisher: Chikuma Shobo

It is a book that you can learn "how to get a common understanding in the absence of an absolute correct answer" which can be said to be a "mystery." It eliminates judgments and misunderstandings and gives a sense of balance to biased thinking.

It is a content that sticks to people who put away everything with "each person," people who impose their own "correctness," people who "generalize things excessively" from experience.

A good book that explains carefully enough to be understood without prerequisite knowledge.

Read more鈴木祐さんの『社会は、静かにあなたを「呪う」』は、普段何気なく受け入れている「日本は終わっている」「人は幸せになるために生きている」などの言葉が、実は思い込みや呪縛である可能性を教えてくれる本です。私もこの本を読んだことで、これまで疑わずにいた社会の常識を疑い直すきっかけになりました。 具体的には、私たちは同じ考えを複数の人から聞くだけで誤情報を信じてしまいやすいという心理的な弱さを持っています。こうした呪縛に気づくことで、物事を鵜呑みにせず自分の頭で考える重要性を改めて認識しました。 また、この本は哲学的な価値観の見直しにも繋がります。現代社会でバランスの取れた思考を持つことは簡単ではありませんが、鈴木さんの論点は私達の感情や思考の枠組みを広げてくれました。価値観に縛られすぎず、柔軟に考えたい人にとって必読です。 このように本書は、身近な社会問題や自身の考え方に対して深く洞察したい人におすすめしたい内容で、日常生活でも役立つヒントが満載です。読後は自分の価値観を見つめ直し、より自分らしい生き方を考えるきっかけになります。ぜひ手に取って、呪縛から自由になる思考法を学んでみてください。
