Melville C. Branch continues his lifelong examination of
planning as inherent in all human activities, and the primary
determinant of our prospects and survival as a species. This latest
work discusses the use of simulation throughout society, as the
representation of what is considered or planned. Simulation is
everpresent in many different forms, such as financial statements
representing the economic state of a business, flight simulators
used in training pilots, and wind tunnels and hydrodynamic tanks
employed in research. Scientific sample polls of relatively few
people reveal the collective opinion of entire populations.
Mathematical models are used to analyze all sorts of phenomena and
to plan many activities. Literature, law, music, and art simulate
human thoughts, emotions, concerns, and conclusions. Simulation is
an essential element of individual behavior and societal
action.
