Full of intriguing goodies ... There’s a lot here, and a lot of it makes sense, but there are moments when the argument is so diffuse as to feel precarious. At times Mr. Madsbjerg teeters on the edge of banality, even incoherence. Yet he never tips over, for there is unmistakably truth in what he’s getting at.
While Madsbjerg does offer numerous illustrations of what he calls "hyper-reflection" drawn from the realms of science, art, and business, readers who really want to learn how to put hyper-reflection into practice may come away feeling a bit unsatisfied ... Lots of anecdotes, many of them really cool, but not enough practical guidance.
Illuminating ... While Madsbjerg leans more into cultural influences on perception—drawing heavily on qualitative research and anecdotal evidence—than practical strategies, readers will be inspired by his clear enthusiasm for viewing the world with an open mind. This casts a fresh light on the everyday.
