内容説明

This book creates a foundation for systems theory and method, in particular, viable systems theory, that explicitly addresses complexity. Various approaches to management systems thinking are also presented via case studies in the final part of the book. The book shows how management systems can be used to deal satisfactorily with complex situations, and provides guidelines that enable such situations to be explained. The book is aimed at advanced students of Information systems, public administration, and business management.
