We have all stumbled upon stupidity at some point and adopted behaviors that, in hindsight, do not seem sensible at all. Sometimes it is even an excess of reason that makes us stupid, when for example we persist in defending our ideas even if they fail, confusing determination with stubbornness and tenacity with closed-mindedness. Blinded by ephemeral successes, instead of correcting these attitudes, we repeat them with total conviction and end up turning occasional manifestations of imbecility into a permanent character trait. Stupidity does not exist in nature, it is not a biological defect; it is an entirely human product, but it represents the greatest danger to humanity, a sneaky virus to which no one is immune. What is the origin of this attitude? What consequences does it have in daily life?

This book provides an in-depth and complete guide explaining how to incorporate the strategic dialogue and strategic communication methods into the debriefing after the scenario, characteristics that make it unique. After examining all the aspects that allow a correct use of the simulation, such as knowledge of models, logical schemes, use of the different simulators, planning of the didactic activities and of learning process, this practical book aims to explore the advanced technique of the strategic debriefing. It encourages not only those who are approaching this new debriefing tool but also it provides a useful update to all those who are already more familiar with the standard debriefing after simulation technique.The strategic language, an effective tool in strategic psychotherapy and business problem solving, is ideal and complementary to the standard debriefing methods, making them more performing and functional because, next to common logic, it makes use of non-ordinary logical language.The book is intended for healthcare simulation debriefers and instructors, for hospitals' managers, university teachers and to all the physicians who are increasingly showing interest in active teaching processes with simulation.
