Rethink is a fast, funny, and occasionally uncomfortable collection of myths, bad facts, misused phrases, and confidently repeated nonsense we all absorbed somewhere along the way and never bothered to question.Did the Pilgrims land on Plymouth Rock? Do we only use 10% of our brains? Was Napoleon actually short? Is it really "for all intensive purposes"?Probably not.Through short, punchy entries, Rethink revisits what "sounds right" and explains why it usually isn't. Covering history, science, language, health, psychology, and everyday misconceptions, this book is less about trivia and more about intellectual course correction.Not to shame you.To update you.Because being wrong isn't the issue.Being confidently wrong is.
