5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent summary of analytical problem solving techniques, 10 May 2002
By A Customer
The book provides summaries of a considerable number of analytical techniques for problem structuring and option selection. They include techniques like Soft Systems Methodology, Strategic Choice and Robustness Analysis. Each method has a chapter describing the method and another offering a practical example. These have been written by the developers of the techniques.

For the most part the descriptions are clear and concise, though the chapters on Confrontation Analysis are a bit opaque.

There's also a good section on use of multi-methods, if the problem you've got is complex.

The book is probably of most use to Operational Research practitioners (at the soft end of the spectrum) and management consultants.
