Some are super useful (with notes on when they would be applicable); others are just for fun.

When I read it around 8 years ago, I found it really eye-opening. But now, I can find many fallacies in it because what is sold as models are just some facts/ theories, now that I have done many behavior analysis and social sciences courses. I would suggest it as a good preliminary text if you are completely unaware of strategic thinking, or even some management (hokum) stuffs.

This was a worthwhile impulse buy. There are a lot of great strategies presented in a generally easy to understand fashion, with diagrams to assist with processing each one. Definitely planning on testing some of them out.

Saw this book in a newsagent before a 2 hour flight. It costed ~$22. It took about an hour to read it. It was enjoyable, and I’ll probably take some ideas from it but don’t expect to be an expert on any models in the book by the end. You’d need to read further on each of the models if you wanted to actually use them. It might be a good read if you are facing a tough decision as it can remind you of the different ways of dealing with the decision, but I’m writing this a couple of weeks later and I’ve completely forgotten the content of the book.
Would I buy the book again, knowing what I know now? Ahh, probably not? It was kind of like reading a comic book: entertaining but won’t change your knowledge level or attitude towards anything.
Also, what's the deal with the stylized pictures on the back of the book: a tie and a bikini? How is that relevant or appropriate?
