Changing How the World Solves Problems It is time to find your way out of the confusion. Thank you for your interest in this unusual book. Preparation for writing this book required many decades because this work presents a historical perspective on the deepest challenges of problem-solving. It is unusual because it is at least four books in one. First, the book presents a biographical story about the development of my deep interest in problem-solving over the last six decades. It also presents a narrative about the other attempts around the world to improve problems-solving. I designed this book, also, to serve as a reference book for you as you continuously work to improve your personal problem-solving skills. I also added a large number of tables throughout the book to assist consultants as they work with clients to resolve their problem-solving challenges. You can also use this book as a text book to deepen or expand your knowledge about the problem-solving environment including the Psychological, Sociological, Philosophical, and Moral considerations of problem-solving. For example, from the perspective of Psychology, problem-solving refers to the challenges people face as human beings. How can we best find the solutions that will work best for us specifically? These kinds of challenges are most often about Process Psychology and are generally situation specific or context-specific. This means that people learn to design appropriate processes that enable them to carefully find solutions to the life specific problems generated by themselves or their family members, colleagues, the friends they encounter in life. In these situations, the problem-solving approach makes a difference. After all, we all would be well-served if we better understood the problems we experience and could master the skill of producing the solution that best fits the problem. This would be the optimal solution. A possible approach to these kinds of situations would be something that enables people to expand their thinking and grow beyond the historically binary ways of approaching human situations.
