About This Book

Sidney Dekker examines how complex systems can gradually decline into catastrophic failure through a series of small, locally rational decisions. He argues that traditional linear models of cause-and-effect are insufficient for understanding modern disasters, proposing instead that we must embrace complexity theory and systems thinking.
