Sinossi
Le persone più abili nel risolvere problemi, prevedere eventi e prendere decisioni fanno affidamento su una serie di schemi e scorciatoie per ridurre la complessità e separare le buone idee da quelle cattive. Si chiamano modelli mentali: li si può trovare in molti libri scolastici di psicologia, fisica, economia... Oppure basta leggere SuperThinking, una guida illustrata a ogni modello mentale di cui si possa aver bisogno. In che modo i modelli mentali possono essere d'aiuto? Ecco alcuni esempi. Quando la lista delle cose da fare è diventata troppo lunga, è necessaria la Matrice decisionale di Eisenhower per stabilire le giuste priorità. Usate il modello dei 5 perché per capire meglio le motivazioni altrui o per trovare la causa di fondo di un problema. Prima di convincervi che qualcuno sta cercando di sabotare un progetto, provare con il Rasoio di Hanlon per scoprire se c'è una spiegazione alternativa. Applicate le Funzioni costrittive, come le riunioni in piedi o le scadenze, per preparare il terreno in vista dei cambiamenti che si desiderano. Per chi deve prendere una decisione difficile o vuole capire una situazione complessa, SuperThinking è una risorsa per fare le scelte giuste e sviluppare idee intelligenti grazie a nuovi modelli mentali.

Recensioni
I love mental models but this book can't even install 1 of them to the readers mind. It is a list of 100s of mental models explained in a few sentences. This should not have been a book but a list of mental models instead, maybe a webpage or something. I'm not sure what was Gabriel thinking turning
Before starting it, I had misgivings about whether Lauren McCann and Gabriel Weinberg’s Super Thinking would be worthwhile for me to read. This was mainly because I have already studied a lot of mental models from various fields of research, and also because it seemed a bit too self-helpy for my tas Leggi tutto
When I saw a tweet from Annie Duke saying the world would improve immediately if everyone read this book, I had to check it out. https://twitter.com/annieduke/status/... I wasn’t disappointed. This book is simple, easy to follow and gives mental models that greatly help your decision making. It has Leggi tutto
Mental Models applied in real life context. The book did an excellent job by connecting mental models in real life context using a storytelling style rather an academic listing of the models. Highly recommend.
A good collection of mental models extracted from various disciplines, which if applied properly, can help broaden one’s perspective. Very similar to Charlie Munger’s emphasis on breadth of knowledge and when magic happens when a confluence of factors across a broad spectrum manifest themselves in a Leggi tutto
2024-11-08: A method that Descartes used and Elon Musk uses: asking what do we know is true, getting to the fundamental truths or axioms. “The central mental model to help you become a chef with your thinking is arguing from first principles. It’s the practical starting point to being wrong less, and Leggi tutto
I picked this up for two reasons, 1. I've read Gabriel's first book - Traction, and found it immensely helpful. 2. I'm a big fan of mental models. Have read Robert Cialdini, Dan Kahnemann, Dan Ariely, Malcolm Gladwell, Richard Thaler & a bunch of others, including being a regular at Farnam Street. (th Leggi tutto
Awesome book. The authors apparently wrote the book for themselves which makes it even more useful and valuable. I would have personally used even more pictures/graphs to explain and compare ideas/behavior. A book worth returning to...
This book is about mental models, which are frameworks of thinking and representations about how things work. Mental models aim to simplify the thinking process and help in decision making and problem solving. This is a well researched book where the authors integrate an exhaustive compilation of Leggi tutto
