Some blog followers might be interested in a recent post "Books for Laypersons on Systems Thinking" [Hake (2010b)]. The abstract reads:
ABSTRACT: In response to a post of 19 Dec 2009 titled "Over Two-Hundred Annotated References on Systems Thinking" [Hake (2009)], author Scott Berkun asked "Do you have any recommendations on books for laypersons on systems thinking?" I relayed Berkun's question to EvalSys, EvalTalk, & K-12SysDyn in a post of 4 April 2010 titled "Any Recommendations on Books for Laypersons on Systems Thinking?" [Hake (2010a)]. Herein are the eight responses to that question that were received, plus two earlier suggestions for additions to "Over Two-Hundred Annotated References on Systems Thinking."
