{"product_id":"polymath","title":"Polymath","description":"\u003cb\u003eEvery human is born with multifarious potential. Why, then, do parents, schools and employers insist that we restrict our many talents and interests; that we ''specialise'' in just one?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe''ve been sold a myth, that to ''specialise'' is the only way to pursue truth, identity, or even a livelihood. Yet specialisation is nothing but an outdated system that fosters ignorance, exploitation and disillusionment and thwarts creativity, opportunity and progress. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing a series of exchanges with the world’s greatest historians, futurists, philosophers and scientists, Waqas Ahmed has weaved together a narrative of history and a vision for the future that seeks to disrupt this prevailing system of unwarranted ‘hyper-specialisation.’ \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Polymath\u003c\/i\u003e, Waqas shows us that there is another way of thinking and being. Through an approach that is both philosophical and practical, he sets out a cognitive journey towards reclaiming your innate polymathic state. Going further, he proposes nothing less than a cultural revolution in our education and professional structures, whereby everyone is encouraged to express themselves in multiple ways and fulfil their many-sided potential. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot only does this enhance individual fulfilment, but in doing so, facilitates a conscious and creative society that is both highly motivated and well equipped to address the complexity of 21st century challenges.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57318355468670,"sku":"NW9781119508489","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781119508489.jpg?v=1778712026","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/polymath","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
