Learning about systems thinking 
At a party a couple of Saturday’s ago, a DIY Brand camper asked me what to read first when exploring systems thinking. Without hesitation I said, “Thinking in Systems”, by Donella Meadows. If you want to go deeper, the Academy for Systems Change has cherry picked Meadows' most important works. 
  1. Thinking in Systems

  2. Leverage Points

  3. Limits to Growth

  4. Dancing with Systems

  5. Problems are Connected – and so are Solutions

  6. Indicators and Information Systems for Sustainable Development
