Review: Good, but not just mental models. Cognitive biases too. - This book promises to discuss mental models and does a good job of that. That's what I was most interested in, as they provide frameworks for thinking and are highly valuable. Partway through, the book starts to include cognitive biases and other quirks of how people think. For that, I wanted to dock a star. These non-model concepts are valuable in themselves but not what I'm here for. They might help you think in a new way, but aren't frameworks for thinking. For example I found the the concept of inertia/momentum/a flywheel personally helpful: “any personal or professional project can be viewed from the perspective of a flywheel. It is slow when you get started on the project, but once you gain some momentum, it seems easier to make progress... when we multitask, we never get enough momentum on any one task for it to start to feel easier.” I ended up giving the book 5 stars because it does help you think differently. Mental models are better for this, but knowing these quirks of human nature help too. It's a good read. Free resources - I also recommend "Model Thinking" on Coursera, some of Nicky Case's "Explorable Explanations", and James Clear's article about mental models. For cognitive biases, look that up on Wikipedia, there are an impressive number there. Review: Might be the most important book in your life - I wish this book was written a bit earlier. 3 years ago when my husband and I moved to the US I started reading as many books on self-development/self-improvement as I could fit in my free time. By this time I've read more than 50 bestsellers on these topics. In 2016 I stumbled upon Gabriel's article on Medium called "Mental models I find repeatedly useful" which is a compilation of many concepts with a short explanation of each one. I would say it's been the best article I've read so far (and I read a lot of them). So, of course, I ordered the book as soon as it became available. I learned some new important concepts from it, but if this book had been available earlier it could have saved me a lot of time. Sure, reading a whole book on one topic could give you more insights and examples to better grasp the concept but at the end of the day you can't retain all nuances in your head and are left with the most important idea from the book. This is what "Super Thinking" is all about - it gives you an array of useful ideas with vivid examples so you could understand every concept without you reading an elaborate 300 pages explanation on every single concept. I would suggest not just read this book and put it on the shelf thinking "okay, I got it, it's simple" (actually all well-explained concepts are fairly simple), but to refer to it as many times as needed until you are completely satisfied with your life and can be proud of yourself. The main point is - we know so much more in theory than we apply in practice. Even the models which look like buzzwords and you think you're already familiar with them - ask yourself if you actually use them. There was a saying of Richard Feynman in the conclusion of this book that there is a difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something. I strongly believe that every person could reach their fullest potential if really applied these models to their every single step, every single decision. If you want to achieve success in every area that's important to you, take "Super Thinking" seriously. Thank you Gabriel and Lauren for this amazing book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #333,111 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #268 in Cognitive Psychology (Kindle Store) #345 in Business Decision Making #358 in Business Decision-Making | ## Images ![Super Thinking: The Big Book of Mental Models - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81spHh95SwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but not just mental models.

It has a good index where the models are bolded. It's a thick book but surprisingly light, because the paper weight is disappointing - the words on the flip side bleed through. A bit disappointing for a book I expect I'll want to revisit as a significant resource. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/136884082-super-thinking-the-big-book-of-mental-models](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/136884082-super-thinking-the-big-book-of-mental-models) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
