Book Reviews of General Principles of Systems Design
Book Review: Not really worth it
Summary: 3 Stars
Perhaps I bought this book with expecting too much. The books does talk about general system thinking, but:- I find the book itself rather unsystematic and jumpy
- The style really annoying
- Most of the material is primitive
On the positive side, if you do want to get a feel of system thinking, this might be one of the books. I would also recommend to check out popular books on Complexity (such as Complexity by Mitchell Walldrop).
