Chapter 1 in Managing Complexity in Social Systems, 2019, pp 1-9 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Dynamics—the study of motion—was always that part of natural science and, after graduation, the area of social science that fascinated me most. Of course, statics—the science about systems in equilibrium—was a necessary prerequisite, but it was dynamics that really caught my attention. This might be why music is more interesting to me than painting, why I enjoy skiing more than yoga, and why I prefer to read and analyze strategies rather than balance sheets.
