<br/><br/> "Society is now facing challenges for which the traditional management toolbox is increasingly inadequate. Well-grounded theoretical frameworks, such as systems-thinking and cybernetics, offer schemes and models that facilitate the understanding of complex phenomena, without being impacted by the passage of time. This book, through a multi-disciplinary approach, addresses the complexity of decision making and problem solving in the 21st century, featuring contributions from systems and cybernetics supported by a wide network of scientists. This book is the outcome of the WOSC 2017, the 17th Congress of the World Organization of Systems and Cybernetics, which invites scientists, policy-makers, professionals and students from across the globe to have a dynamic conversation about the dynamics of contemporary societal problems from systems and cybersystemic perspectives"-- Provided by publisher
