Thinking in Systems: A Primer is an introduction to systems thinking, an approach to understanding and managing complexity. Its author, Donella Meadows, explains that all systems, from the natural world to economic and social systems, are composed of interrelated components and can be understood through systematic analysis and modeling. The book outlines a set of principles, models, and strategies for making better decisions, improving systems, and avoiding unintended consequences. Through case studies, Meadows shows readers how to recognize and analyze systems, anticipate unintended consequences, and create feedback processes for managing and improving systems. The book also provides an accessible introduction to system dynamics, a computer-based modeling tool for simulating and analyzing complex systems. Thinking in Systems is an essential guide for anyone wishing to understand and influence the complex world around them.
