A transformative and philosophical investigation into how we ask questions, full of practical advice on how we can harness the power of questions for ourselvesWe live in a world that wants answers. Answers provide solutions to our problems, teach us about the world, and help us navigate our lives. But we rush toward answers forgetting, that it is questions that set the course.Questions are a form of power, as well as a vital, everyday tool.
