A brilliant and insightful synthesis of many ideas, around the common theme that common sense is not a reliable way of modeling how the world works. And yet, we use it all the time to model, analyze and predict certain types of phenomena – incorrectly without ever realizing it. The book covers topics ranging from emergence and the micro-macro problem, the theory of small worlds, the strategy paradox, and the matthew effect, plus a lot more. A must read!
