Thursday, January 17 represents the inaugural meeting for Systems Thinking Ontario.  We'll learn from our interaction, and may evolve some features of future meetings.  Register on Eventbrite.

Theme: Systems Thinking and Science

The focus question for the evening is:  "Is the function of systems thinking to be (i) a science or (ii) a complement to science?"

Suggested pre-reading: Boulding (1956)

To provide a minimal shared context, a foundational (i.e. really old!) article can be helpful.

Participants should not feel limited to this suggested pre-reading, but should recognize that other attendees may have not read, or are reading differently, that article.
