'Wonderfully stimulating... will teach you to see around corners' -- Tim Harford 'A paean to cognitive agility and the elasticity of the imagination' -- The Economist 'A tightly written prescription for smart thinking' -- Financial Times The power of mental models to make better decisions We're always told that humans make bad decisions and that more data is better.
