Summary "Thinking as a Science" by Henry Hazlitt is a philosophical treatise written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the nature of thinking, emphasizing that real, purposeful thinking is often neglected in favor of superficial engagement with problems. Hazlitt aims to outline a systematic approach to thinking that can lead to better problem-solving and decision-making skills. The opening of the book introduces the author's core idea that while many people profess to think deeply about societal problems, they often do not engage in the rigorous, methodical thinking required to understand and address those issues effectively. Hazlitt argues that he, like others, has his own "pet evil" — the neglect of real thinking — which he believes contributes to the myriad of problems faced in society. He critiques the tendency of individuals to seek quick answers through reading rather than reflecting on their thoughts. The chapter sets the stage for a more structured exploration of thinking, advocating for an understanding of how to think critically and creatively to find meaningful solutions to life's significant questions.
