Visualize the Statue of Justice: a blindfolded woman in ancient Roman robes holding up scales to weigh arguments. The strongest arguments tip the scale in their favor, and those arguments become the truth. That’s Either-Or thinking – e.g, a person is either innocent or guilty. But, there is another, much newer path to truth called both-and thinking. It takes all arguments (or the needs underlying the arguments) as true and combines them to reveal new, often unexpected truths.
