This book expands the foundations of general systems theory to
enable progress beyond the rich heuristic practices available
today. It establishes a foundational framework for the development
of scientific transdisciplinary systems principles and shows how
these can amplify the potential of individuals and teams working in
multi-, inter- and transdisciplinary contexts or striving to
translate their progress across disciplinary boundaries. Three
general scientific systems principles are presented, and their
relevance to the design, analysis, management and transformation of
systems is explored. Applying lessons from the history and
philosophy science, this book disambiguates key concepts of general
systemology, clarifies the role of general systemology within the
field of systemology, and explains how general systemology supports
other forms of transdisciplinarity. These insights are used to
develop new perspectives, strategies and tools for addressing
long-standing challenges to the advancement and transdisciplinary
application of general insights into the nature of complex
systems.The material presented in this book includes comprehensive
models of the structure of systemology as a disciplinary field, the
structure and significance of the general systems worldview, and
the role of general systemology as the heart of systems science,
systems engineering and systems practice. It explains what a
fully-fledged general theory of systems would look like, what its
potential is, what routes are available to us to develop it
further, and how to leverage the knowledge we have attained so far.
Many examples and analogies show how general systemology has the
potential to enable scientific discovery, insightful theory
building, and practical innovation in all the disciplines as they
study, design, nurture or transform complex systems. This book is
essential reading for anyone wishing to master the concepts,
terminology, models and strategies needed to make effective use of
current general systems knowledge and to engage in the further
development of the philosophy, science, and practice of general
systemology.
