The Decision Book is a compendium of models – SWOT, Maslow, and the like.

The book is broad. Perhaps too broad. It's also shallow. Each model gets a cursory glance, four pages at most. This might be fine for a fleeting introduction, a sort of "model discovery" phase, but I was left wanting more. It seems the authors’ plan was to introduce a model, then send you out to research the details.

On the plus side, the drawings and graphs are informative and the book is small enough to keep on hand at work. I can imagine being stuck on a dilemma and whipping the book out. 

I probably won’t do this, but I can imagine it.
