Great book! submitted by mowjac on August 26, 2018, 2:55pm If you are interested in how systems connect to each other and make bigger things happen, or how feedback loops interlock and create a global economic crash or how to change current paradigms, I recommend this book. Meadows clearly describes systems analysis, how it can be used to benefit humanity.
Interesting but somewhat dated submitted by sbtaylor on August 22, 2020, 12:52pm Super interesting book if you are interested in a systems mindset. The author actually published this 20 years or so ago, and it was released as a book after her death, so it being slightly dated makes a lot of sense. The examples used to explain are detailed and very interesting - after all, all models are bad but some are useful!
