Should we cooperate, compete, or both? • Is it in our best interest to compete or to cooperate? • Some have argued that humans are fundamentally competitive and that pursuing our self-interest is the best way to get ahead. Others believe that we are hard-wired to cooperate and are most successful when we collaborate with others • In Friend and Foe, leading psychologists Adam Galinsky and Maurice Schweitzer draw on original, cutting-edge research to explain why this debate misses the mark.

Точность - ключ ко всему. Это неотъемлемый, неоспоримый и существенный компонент нашего современного социального, коммерческого, научного, механического и интеллектуального ландшафта. Предметы, которые мы ценим в повседневной жизни – фотоаппарат, телефон, компьютер, велосипед, автомобиль, возможно, посудомоечная машина, – все это спортивные компоненты, которые точно сочетаются друг с другом и работают практически идеально. Мы также предполагаем, что чем точнее устройство, тем оно лучше.
