Edgeware: Insights from Complexity Science for Health Care

This book isn't really a primer on complexity science and isn't focused on system dynamics or mathematical modelling. Rather, it's a set of concepts and tools that you can use when looking at complex problems such as organizational change management, developing strategy in a fluid and uncertain environment, building political support for your ideas, etc. Definitely got me thinking.

Understanding complexity can be complicated, however Dr. Zimmerman and colleagues have incisive metaphors that help readers make these theories and trends as simple as following a cookbook. I believe the best starting point is the primer section, which I have heavily do geared to refer to in the future. And then look at some of the stories and anecdotes that add richness and connection to the material. I highly recommend it to all healthcare providers, realists, and contortionists with red hair :DDr. Alykhan AbdullaMedical Director and CEO The Kingsway Health Centre

Most grounded and compelling book on complexity theory of all time

The book came on time. Got it as described.

Better off using the free website. Didn't use this book as much as I thought I would, used it once for the entire semester.
