Rolf Dobelli on déformation professionnelle

Here are a few examples of déformation professionnelle: Surgeons want to solve almost every medical problem with a scalpel, even if their patients could be treated with less invasive methods.  Armies think of military solutions first.  Engineers, structural.  Trend gurus see trends in everything (incidentally, this is one of the most idiotic ways to view the world).  In short: If you ask people the crux of a particular problem, they usually link it to their own expertise.
