Synopsis
Systemantics: The Underground Text of Systems Lore- How Systems Really Work & How They Fail: The Indispensable Handbook of Systems-behavior, written specifically for all of us who must daily cope with the Pitfalls, Foibles, and Failures of the Systems that make up our Modern World.
The SECOND EDITION has been favorably reviewed in the Whole Earth Catalogue (1986) by Kevin Kelly: "The author is having fun with a serious subject . . . insights come in the form of marvelously succinct rules of thumb, in the spirit of Murphy's Law and the Peter Principle." And Computer Book Review (April, 1987) remarks, "From 'Function-and-Failure' to 'Management and Other Myths', here's a collection of witty observations… grown into mature rules of thumb."
