Spencer Greenberg and Jeremy Stevenson have co-authored a new book titled "The 12 Levers," which presents a rationalist approach to self-improvement. The book distills over 500 psychological techniques from more than 100 self-help books and 20 therapies into 12 core strategies. It also examines the evidence base for these techniques, noting that many popular methods like mindfulness and exposure are recycled across different therapeutic approaches. The authors also highlight that some widely adopted techniques, such as cold exposure, may lack robust scientific evidence for their purported benefits. AI
