Environmental, social, organizational, and informational problems are pluralistic and messy. Systems approaches are required to reduce conflict and confusion. A key challenge is to apply holistic systems concepts to improve the lives of those served by systems of all kinds. This challenge motivated the theme for 2007's ANZSYS conference-'Systemic development: local solutions in a global environment'. This volume brings together nearly seventy papers covering the following topics: A globally-connected virtual world; Applications of creativity to systemic problem-solving; Conceptual modelling; Critical systems; Information systems; Managing systemic development; Organizational systems; Regional and environmental systems; Social systems; System dynamics; and Systems theory\/systems thinking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Sheffield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0981703275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780981703275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Isce Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 1.63d","brand":"James Sheffield","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47637161640191,"sku":"9780981703275","price":65.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cc5999f4-1e54-49c2-b36b-9a2c05d9ca63.jpg?v=1765114326","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/systemic-development-james-sheffield-9780981703275","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
