In a global market economy, a viable business cannot be locked into a single
form or function anymore. Rather, success is contingent upon a self-renewing
capacity to spontaneously create structures, functions, and processes
responsive to a fluctuating business landscape. Now in its third edition,
Systems Thinking synthesizes systems theory and interactive design, providing
an operational methodology for defining problems and designing solutions in
an environment increasingly characterized by chaos and complexity.

The current edition has been updated to include all new chapters on self-
organizing systems, Holistic, Operational, and Design thinking. Gharajedaghi
covers recent crises in financial systems and job markets, the housing bubble,
and environment, assessing their impact on systems thinking. A companion
website to accompany the book is available at www.interactdesign.com.

Four NEW chapters on self-organizing systems, holistic thinking, operational
