Description du livre
The overall trend of modern science and technology is to synthesize all areas of knowledge into a few major blocks. Another characteristic is that the aesthetic standard of scientific workers has been changing constantly. They ask, How can they equip themselves with the newest knowledge? How can they handle new knowledge, the amount of which has been increasing in a geometric series? According to Quastler, systems methodology is essentially the establishment of a structural foundation for four kinds of theories of organization: cybernetics, game theory, decision theory, and information theory.
