Description: This book examines how models are used and built in various situations, challenging the traditional view that there is only one "best" model for any given problem. The author, an experienced modeler, argues that models should be tailored to the specific needs of the user and the situation, taking into account factors such as the user's understanding, the intended use of the model, and the complexity of the problem. The book provides a framework for understanding the different types of models and their strengths and weaknesses, and offers practical advice on how to build and use models effectively. It also discusses the importance of teaching modeling skills to both future model builders and users, and provides a utility theory for evaluating models based on their various attributes. The book's insights will be valuable to anyone involved in building or using models, and will help to improve the quality and effectiveness of modeling in various fields.
