... Certainly the best introduction to our field that I have
yet seen. Since we started recommending it to our local National
Capital SD Group several members have ordered it... and my professional
colleagues and I in the consulting game are now providing complimentary
copies to existing and prospective clients. You have struck
a wonderful balance between the "soft" and "hard" sides of ST/SD
practice. Thanks and congratulations.

Just finished going through your book, and I wanted to say how
much I enjoyed it. Delightful style, crystal clear, and highly
accessible. I know a great many people find them an easy entry
path to modelling, and I will certainly recommend the book to
colleagues who teach systems thinking and SD [System Dynamics]
modelling.

I
recommend this book for students and professionals interested
in gaining a greater knowledge of the systemic processes, which
underlie a system, policy or industry. I personally apply this
book as my guide 'bible'. The authors in this book cover both
systems thinking methods and operational design and modelling.
I particularly like the examples and explanations of the 'four-levels
of systems thinking', the practical application of 'casual loops'
and the case study examples of modelling operational design,
using the ithink CD.
I use this book in my professional capacity, to guide planning
and to explain complex issues to a wide audience. It is relevant
for health professionals, lawyers, social workers and practitioners,
students, policy makers, historians, small and large businesses
and very effective if you are involved in developing services
