This audiobook is a kind of introduction to the art of systems thinking, a story about the principles and methods of a holistic understanding of complex systems, about the properties whose behavior is determined by the nature of the connections between their components and the representations of the people involved in them. The authors managed to achieve an unusual combination of imagery and depth thanks to the description of problem situations using causal cycles - chains of amplifying and balancing feedbacks. This approach gives the listener a unique opportunity to simultaneously use their abilities for imaginative perception and logical thinking to find extraordinary creative solutions.
