Please note that the breakthrough dialectical metasystemic advanced analysis and problem-solving methodology (DMAP) is also known by its originator, Otto Laske, as the dialectical thought form system (DTF).

The Metathinking Book, The Art and Practice of Transformational Thinking, is perfect for teaching the general public basic DMAP Skills.

We have reviewed Metathinking, The Art and Practice of Transformational Thinking by Nick Shannon and Bruno Frischherz. We have long promoted the skills of dialectical meta-systemic thinking (meta-thinking), which we use extensively for our climate research at Job One for Humanity and the Universe Institute.

We are happy to announce that a new book teaches dialectical meta-thinking at a basic, stripped-down level that will work well for small businesses and general individual use. Until the release of this book, there was no easy-to-use and understand book that would introduce individuals to the multi-perspective power of dialectical meta-thinking. As such, this new book greatly serves the world because meta-thinking skills are essential to success in our highly complex world. 

This Metathinking new book differs significantly from the seminal text on advanced dialectical meta systemic thinking by Otto Laske, While Otto Laske's book has the essential dialectical meta-systemic thinking depth for advanced corporate, think tank and goverment agency researchers and analysts, it can be overwhelming for most individuals without profound research and analysis backgrounds and significant previous understanding of advanced dialectical concepts.

The new metathinking book contains easy-to-understand definitions, examples, and exercises. We found the exercises particularly enlightening and helpful for individuals new to these advanced and complex thinking processes. Moreover, its many exercises will help the reader use metathinking processes quickly and fluently in their small business and personal life.

Hopefully, this book will bridge the general society and help many more people develop and use the general skills of dialectical metathinking. We (and the authors also believe) that if more people were proficient in dialectical metathinking, our world would be far better able to solve its current complex problems more easily and quickly.

This book opens the door to mass training individuals in metathinking, which is essential to our future. 

Metathinking allows more individuals to become aware of their thinking processes beyond logical thinking and develop them to the next level. It also provides a broader bridge and the critical process for many people to establish metathinking skills.

We wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone wanting to improve their thinking skills. If you like what you learn in this book, it will be a stepping stone to the more advanced new trilogy of books by Otto Laske, the originator of dialectical metasystemic thinking.
