We are a complex amalgam of systems that enable us to interact with an endless array of external systems in our daily lives. They are electrical, mechanical, social, biological, and many other types that control our environment and our well-being. By appreciating how these systems function, will broaden our understanding of how our world works. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaders from a variety of disciplines will benefit from the knowledge of system behavior they will gain from this book and will be able to apply those principles in various contexts. The treatment of the subject is non-mathematical, and the book considers some of the latest concepts in the systems discipline, such as agent based systems, optimization, and discrete events and procedures. The diverse range of examples provided in this book, will allow readers to: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eApply system knowledge at work and in daily life without deep mathematical knowledge;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild models and simulate system behaviors on a personal computer;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Optimize systems in many different ways;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduce or eliminate unintended consequences;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelop a holistic world view .\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will enable readers to not only better interact with the systems in their professional and daily lives, but also allow them to develop and evaluate them for their effectiveness in achieving their designed purpose. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eComments from Reviewers: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \"This is a marvelously well written introduction to Systems Thinking and System Dynamics - I like it because it introduces Systems Thinking with meaningful examples, which everyone should be able to readily connect\" - \u003cb\u003eGene Bellinger\u003c\/b\u003e, Organizational theorist, systems thinker, and consultant, Director Systems Thinking World\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \"Excellent book ...very well written.
