Thinking in Systems: A Primer by Donella H. Meadows
4.0

Did I ever mention that I am obsessed with complexity science? Ever since I got introduced to it in first year of uni, I wanted to learn more. It is just such a neat way to dissect the world and look at it. One that makes much more sense than reductionist approaches (trying to explain things through rigid formulas or breaking it down in ways that do not make sense).
This book is a great introduction to the major concepts of complexity and systems thinking (basically the same thing). Highly recommend it to anyone who lacks words for the complicated ideas they have about this world. I am sure much of this is intuitive, but reading about it, will be much cooler.
