The New York Times bestselling guide to thinking like literature's greatest detective. "Steven Pinker meets Sir Arthur Conan Doyle" (Boston Globe), by the author of The Confidence Game.

No fictional character is more renowned for his powers of thought and observation than Sherlock Holmes. But is his extraordinary intellect merely a gift of fiction, or can we learn to cultivate these abilities ourselves, to improve our lives at work and at home?

We can, says psychologist and journalist Maria Konnikova, and in Mastermind she shows us how. Beginning with the "brain attic"--Holmes's metaphor for how we store information and organize knowledge--Konnikova unpacks the mental strategies that lead to clearer thinking and deeper insights. Drawing on twenty-first-century neuroscience and psychology, Mastermind explores Holmes's unique methods of ever-present mindfulness, astute observation, and logical deduction. In doing so, it shows how each of us, with some self-awareness and a little practice, can employ these same methods to sharpen our perceptions, solve difficult problems, and enhance our creative powers. For Holmes aficionados and casual readers alike, Konnikova reveals how the world's most keen-eyed detective can serve as an unparalleled guide to upgrading the mind.

Charges slowly and makes phone/charger really hot.
Color: 2White
I thought these would be great, but they aren't. I use them with a 25w charging block, but they charger my iPhone so slowly! I can't really use the phone for any games or even scrolling TikTok while the charger is on it because the phone uses power faster than these mag-chargers can charge the phone. The phone also overheats when this charger is on it. Never had that problem with a lightning charger. Basically these are only good when you won't be using the phone, and it takes a long time. Not very happy with them.

Secure Mount With Premium Feel
This phone mount feels incredibly sturdy once installed. No shaking or movement while driving, even on rough roads. The design looks clean and factory installed instead of bulky like a lot of other mounts. It holds the phone securely and keeps it easy to access for navigation.

Solid Product
I was a bit skeptical based on the price ($85 total after taxes) but you can tell that for the price, this thing is sturdy and high quality. Holds solid onto the vent and keeps my iPhone in place. Easy to adjust and move to your liking, also easy to turn 90* and have your phone sideways. Only drawback is that is obstructs the view of the clock on my 4Runner and slightly obstructs my windshield, but I am sure I will get used to it.
