Excellent- More about Systems Science: Theory, Analysis, Modeling, and Design
This book provides a comprehensive approach to applying systems science formally to the deep analysis of complex systems, with detailed 'how-to examples of the three phases (analysis-modeling-design). It demonstrates how to functionally and structurally deconstruct complex systems using a fundamental language of systems, capture details in a structured knowledge base, and generate abstract models for simulation and system design specifications. It appeals to a broad audience that deals with complex systems every day.

This comprehensive book offers a systematic approach to applying systems science formally to the in-depth analysis of diverse complex systems. It provides detailed 'how-to examples of the three phases (analysis, modeling, and design) of systems science, applied to systems of various types, including machines, organic systems (such as ecosystems), and supra-organic systems (such as business organizations and government). The complexity of the global system has reached unprecedented proportions, challenging our abilities to comprehend the implications of our technological advancements, environmental modifications, and self-governance. Consequently, complex mathematics is avoided when simpler structures suffice, enabling a broader audience to apply and benefit from the available tools and concepts of systems science in their work.
The book demonstrates, in intricate detail, how to functionally and structurally deconstruct complex systems using a fundamental language of systems. It showcases how to capture the discovered details in a structured knowledge base, from which abstract models can be derived for simulation. Furthermore, the knowledge base serves as a foundation for generating system design specifications for human-built artifacts and policy recommendations or policy mechanisms for socio-economic-ecological systems management.
Building upon principles and methods found in the authors' Principles of Systems Science (co-authored with Michael Kalton), this book is accessible to a broad audience, spanning design engineers, economic and ecological systems managers, and policymakers who encounter complex systems on a daily basis.
