Systems-Thinkers’ Resources
Background
Many, many moons ago there was a books database. This contained a lot of information on books that might interest systems-thinkers - including an overview and document structure. It was useful as there wasn’t (and often still isn’t today) and sensible means of grouping content for systems folks. It was, however bespoke code and a bit of a pain to maintain. Eventually it all became too hard and got retired from public view.
It hadn’t gone away and there is still a need to try and find and present things of interest.
In the meantime technology and the Internet have moved on and the possibility of making it interactive in ways that didn’t then exist seems sensible.
