In this updated edition, Steve Portigal quickly and effectively dispels the myth that interviewing is trivial.

Inflation is back, and its impact can be felt everywhere, from the grocery store to the mortgage market to the results of elections around the world. Yet the conventional wisdom about inflation is stuck in the past. Since the 1970s, there has only really been one playbook for fighting inflation: raise interest rates, thereby creating unemployment and a recession, which will lower prices. But this simple story hides a multitude of beliefs about why prices go up and how policymakers can wrestle them back down, beliefs that are often wrong, damaging, and have little empirical basis.

Systems are becoming more powerful—but not necessarily more aligned with the people using them. This book bridges that gap. Drawing from principles of human intelligence (...
