This book argues that our obsession with competition — the "winner/loser" framework that dominates everything from schoolyards to boardrooms — is fundamentally broken. It's making us anxious, resentful, and disconnected. The author dismantles the myth that life must be a zero-sum game and explores how this mindset fuels inequality, burnout, and social fracture. But this isn't just a critique — it's a blueprint for opting out. You'll find practical strategies for reframing success, building cooperative relationships, and designing a life that doesn't require someone else to lose for you to win. Written with clarity and conviction, it's part social commentary, part self-help manual. For anyone exhausted by the grind, tired of comparison culture, or wondering why modern life feels like a rat race nobody wins.
