Gorgeous book that will help you apply mental models from the sciences.

I love how the epilogue explains how the 2nd volume made, without any intention to connect between the mental models, one another. Shane literally asked us, the reader to connect it, build our own lattice works. Which is great!

Can't wait for the 3rd volume at September ❤️

To add more, each concept forces an example/analogy from outside the hard sciences such as “how the tea is so popular worldwide” and makes it feel cramped just to fit the original concept, and worst of all, this “examples/analogies” are not just forced but tedious and way prolonged
