The classic book on a major modern theory

Bertalanffy’s selected writings on his theory of laws applicable to virtually every scientific field.

The new foreword by University of Vienna system theory professor, Wolfgang Hofkirchner, and Centre for Systems Philosophy director, David Rousseau, discusses the theory’s contemporary applications.
