review 1: What rubbish!This book picks fifty things about life at random, struggles to fit these things into mathematical, scientific or philosophical theories and then puts them down on paper. More than half are simply little more than factoids that aren't all that interesting and the other half are made up of subjective information that only argues one side of a point but is written as gospel.Then there are the diagrams which are often hard to decipher quickly and add little to the argument laid out in text.I would strongly advise against reading this book, spend your time on something else.
review 2: Authors Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschappeler previously came out with The Decision Book. It was termed as a book containing excellent strategic models and tools for most... more leadership environments. It taught one through 50 models on decision-making. Now, they are out with another — The Change Book — in which they attempt to give another 50 models to explain how change happens. How do you make your way in a world that is changing at an unprecedented rate? Why do we have less and less time? Why are some people unfaithful? How can our government act against threats before they happen? This book is about change — from the small and seemingly insignificant transitions in our day-to-day lives, to the big and almost incomprehensible shifts in human history.In The Change Book, you’ll find models explaining financial crises, why biotechnology is the industry of the future and why cities are the new nations. Whether you’re buying a new car, deciding whom to vote for, or making an investment, this black book offers simple explanations for our complicated world and radically challenge some of our preconceived ideas.The Change Book, a pocket-sized publication, small enough to slip into a handbag, and a mere 151 pages long, makes the following claim: Understand the change before you go around wanting it. Each section uses models and graphs to present ideas in layman terms. The reasoning behind this idea is that we understand concepts better when presented as images. Krogerus makes use of basic pie charts, mind maps, flow charts and axis models in order to translate his ideas into a simpler format. Most seem childlike and useless, but they all fit into a larger scheme of things.The Change Book is full of stimulating and thought-provoking facts, providing the reader with a plethora of entertaining conversation, but not all will be enthused by models and charts. less
