About this book

Thinking in Systems by Donella Meadows is a short primer that offers insight into solving problems at any scale, from the personal to the global. Meadows moves systems thinking away from computers and equations and into the everyday world, showing readers how to build systems-thinking skills of their own. Beyond the concepts and methods of systems thinking, the book asks readers to focus on what matters, not only what can be measured, and to stay humble and keep learning. The book presents this way of seeing as a first step out of confusion and helplessness toward proactive, effective solutions in a crowded, interdependent world.
