Overview
Reality-based thinking (or just "reality-based") is a phrase which became popular during George W. Bush's second term as President, apparently because of a quote from an unnamed Bush aide which was included in a New York Times Magazine article1.
The term is generally used in reference to the idea that the best solutions are found by studying perceivable reality. It is generally in opposition to "faith-based thinking"
