Logic problem solving is a method I have put together that identifies a problem before finding a solution using a wide range of tools, strategies, and techniques. After reading the tool section, you will be as thorough as a detective, as precise as a marksman, and as resourceful as a survivalist. This book is not about basic problem-solving; it’s a lifestyle and a mindset if you decide to apply it to your life. It will change the way you think forever. I explain each tool with stories and examples that relate to what you see and do every day. I will show you how to explore every possibility, and how to use your surroundings to your advantage. By using logic to find valid arguments, as well as using our imagination, we can build a picture that reveals the weak link in the chain. Working our way backwards, we find connections related to the problem, and then we use several tools to overcome it. It's fun, easy, and very effective! Become your very own logic problem solver today.
The fun and simple problem-solving guide that took Japan by storm Ken Watanabe originally wrote Problem Solving 101 for Japanese schoolchildren. His goal was to help shift the focus in Japanese education from memorization to critical thinking, by adapting some of the techniques he had learned as an elite McKinsey consultant. He was amazed to discover that adults were hungry for his fun and easy guide to problem solving and decision making. The book became a surprise Japanese bestseller, with more than 370,000 in print after six months. Now American businesspeople can also use it to master some powerful skills. Watanabe uses sample scenarios to illustrate his techniques, which include logic trees and matrixes. A rock band figures out how to drive up concert attendance. An aspiring animator budgets for a new computer purchase. Students decide which high school they will attend. Illustrated with diagrams and quirky drawings, the book is simple enough for a middleschooler to understand but sophisticated enough for business leaders to apply to their most challenging problems.

Everybody can benefit from having good problem solving skills as we all encounter problems on a daily basis. Some of these problems are obviously more severe or complex than others. It would be wonderful to have the ability to solve all problems efficiently and in a timely fashion without difficulty, unfortunately though there is no one way in which all problems can be solved. Problem solving is all about using logic, as well as imagination, to make sense of a situation and come up with an intelligent solution. In fact, the best problem solvers actively anticipate potential future problems and act to prevent them or to mitigate their effects.
