Realising Systems Thinking: Knowledge and Action in Management Science

From the reviews:

"This book provides a thorough evaluation of the philosophy of systems, ending up with an introduction to multimethodology and its application in real situations. … The style of the book is uncompromisingly academic with full referencing … and relevant quotations. … is targeted at the academic community and will serve this audience well, most especially those undertaking research degrees with a heavy bias towards non-physical science areas of interest. … It does provide a good academic foundation for multimethodology applications." (Jane Holland, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 59, 2008)
