The Patterning Instinct, by Jeremy Lent, is an exploration of how humans think and reason. The book challenges the notion that humans are limited to strict rationality, arguing instead for a more expansive framework that accounts for intuition, instincts, values, and emotions. In particular, Lent argues that patterning is an evolutionary adaptation with far-reaching implications for how humans interact with their environment. He posits that when we are able to identify patterns within the chaos of our physical and psychological worlds, we can unlock both creative potential and a deeper understanding of life. The book is a riveting exploration of the hidden forces shaping our individual and collective lives.
