Abstract

To prepare the theoretical foundation for the rest of this book, this chapter introduces the basics of systems thinking, the systemic yoyo model, and some elementary properties of this model. Then, for the completeness of this book, this chapter also glances through the theoretical and empirical justifications on why each and every system can be seen as a rotational yoyo.
