Mindset (Revised and Updated) by Dr Carol S. Dweck explains how our beliefs about intelligence, talent and ability influence achievement, motivation and personal development. Dweck introduces the distinction between a fixed mindset, in which abilities are viewed as largely unchangeable, and a growth mindset, in which abilities can be developed through effort, learning and persistence.

The book applies the growth-mindset concept to education, parenting, relationships, business, leadership, sports and personal goals. It explores how changing the way we respond to challenges, mistakes and feedback can encourage resilience, learning and long-term achievement.
