“Each chapter dealing with a particular type of system starts with a brief history review, which is good motivation for the reader and provides background context. ... the book is a good starting text for some control engineers since it demonstrates how to model and simulate a system, how to incorporate discrete events and sequential steps in system dynamics, and at the end how to seek optimal system behavior.” (Alexander Tzanov, Computing Reviews, computingreviews.com, June, 2016)
This book is a study of the interactions between different types of systems, their environment, and their subsystems. The author explains how basic systems principles are applied in engineered (mechanical, electromechanical, etc.) systems and then guides the reader to understand how the same principles can be applied to social, political, economic systems, as well as in everyday life. Readers from a variety of disciplines will benefit from the understanding of system behaviors and will be able to apply those principles in various contexts. The book includes many examples covering various types of systems. The treatment of the subject is non-mathematical, and the book considers some of the latest concepts in the systems discipline, such as agent-based systems, optimization, and discrete events and procedures.
