This is an interesting read that gives a summary of various different models that have been developed and used over the years to explain how and why different things happen. Each model has a brief history and description with it as well as a little diagram that helps put this in context. As an introduction this book is definitely very useful as a starting point for diving into particular ones that catch your interest in more detail.

I found 'The Decision Book' to be quite useful. This one just seems to be a reiteration of the same concepts presented in a different format. I would recommend reading one of the books in this whole series and avoiding the rest.

Tons of useless models such as the oscar wilde quotatuon model , tv series model and a bunch of models which absolutely 0 predictive power .
A downgrade from the decision book which was already on shaky ground

50 graphical models on how life works drawn from pop psychology, economics and management theory. Won't blow your mind, but more than enough in here to make you think "Hrm, interesting."

Not really a book - but a collection of models to think about change. Can get minds and conversations started if you enjoy thinking about...

A good read for those who want to have a screenshot of what matter in the modern world. The models are all fun to read and easy to understand. I suggest after reading this book to read further on the concepts / ideas eg. universal basic income, financial crisis, religion, politics etc.
But for experts, you might find this book to be reductive.
