Synopsis

This “comic book” teaches system dynamics – a methodology and modeling technique used to understand complex systems– in a way that is accessible and fun. In this cleverly illustrated and humorously presented book, Professor João Arantes explains the basics of system dynamics to those who want to learn how system dynamic theory applies to our world. Committed to shaping the conscience of his students, Professor João Arantes has included subjects like the depletion of non-renewable resources and the degradation of the environment, presenting them in a way that is both playful and deadly serious. Using interesting examples from history, Professor Arantes illustrates how system dynamics can explain some of the successes and failures of our world, and at the same time teaches the tools that can help us ensure better outcomes for our work. In his own words, Professor Arantes hopes to create “a new generation of systems thinkers” who will be equipped to develop the much-needed solutions to the environmental, social and economic problems that currently face us. This useful book is a terrific start.
