Super Thinking by Lauren McCann

The Big Book of Mental Models

An accessible guide to improving decisions by building a latticework of mental models drawn from economics, psychology, statistics, and systems thinking. It explains core concepts such as second-order thinking, inversion, probabilistic reasoning, opportunity cost, and network effects, and shows how to apply them to personal and professional choices. Through concrete examples and checklists, it helps readers spot biases, avoid common pitfalls, and reason more clearly in complex, uncertain situations.
