ADVANCED PRAISE
Everything has a pattern, even the most seemingly random events. So much of success in life comes down to how you interact with the patterns at play. Some people are oblivious to the patterns, others know about them but don't know what they are, a few study them and unpack them so they can take advantage of them . . . and then there are the pattern masters, like Steven Feinberg, who see these patterns at each of the four levels of the games we all play.
You'll be reading this book because you're a forward- thinking leader. And as you navigate this seminal work from Steven, he will challenge you to create the exceptional . . . to be a First Adapter rather than a first adopter. More importantly, he'll combine his unique blend of science, psychology, and strategy to show you how.

Steven's been my coach, and through this groundbreaking book he can be your coach too. To be a game changer in any field, you need to be a First Adapter. First Adapters know what game they play-a small game, better game, or Meta-Game. They can make sense of the uncertainties, predict outcomes, and build their own Sense-Making Guidance System to become game changers in life. Now is the time to learn to be a First Adapter in life, and this book is here to guide and coach you. Soma Biswas, Google Product Mgmt, VP Product Mgmt Big Data Labs, American Express

For the first time, Dr. Feinberg unpacks how we make sense of the world. Our brains are sense-making machines that run on automatic pilots and factory settings. His book is the equivalent of a masterclass, a private session for Jedi apprentices with Yoda.
