Published after Donella Meadow's death, it introduces Systems Thinking by way of definition, illustration and application. In Part 1, System Structure and Behaviour, Meadows uses two graphical tools to analyse systems: stock and flow diagrams to show system structure; and charts mapping stock or flow levels over time to explore system behaviour for specific scenarios. In “Thinking in Systems”, Donella Meadows explains how we can use systems-thinking to understand how things work, identify root problem causes, see new opportunities, make better decisions and adapt to changing circumstances. In this Thinking in Systems summary, we’ll outline the concepts, principles and real-life applications for systems.

In this book, you'll learn major concepts like inflows and outflows, feedback loops, non-linearity, constraints, escalation, and resilience, as well as gain a better understanding of how systems tend to change over time.
