I got the audiobook version.
Why am I not happy:
1. $18.56 for 3 hours 23 min book.
2. 1/3 of this audiobook is introduction.
3. Similar content could be found in various blogs.
How can you ask $18 for little or no value content ?
Waste of money and time.
His examples make it easy to comprehend situations of how to use them and where we could be wrong in doing so. I'll be looking forward to the rest of the series.
He has such great insights and the ability to communicate complex ideas in a such a way that anyone is able to benefit. I have been following Shane and reading his content on his blog Farnam Street for quite a few months now. I was first exposed to the Mental Models on Shanes blog and was absolutely blown away. ANYONE can benefit from this audiobook and the application if its contents.
This audiobook will make you realize what you have been missing, help you to become a better problem solver, decision maker and provide overall clarity. It will supply you with the necessary tools in order to help you look at the world and the problems we encounter in multiple ways. Get ready for an eye opening experience.
Thank you Shane for putting together this content. Can’t wait for Volume 2!!!!

Quite well presented with pertinent examples. I was disappointed when I reached the end so quickly.
