Sometimes I found myself moving slowly through sentences trying not to lose a narrative thread. The author tried to improve a reader's experience by adding multiple Laws. The idea is good but it didn't drastically change the situation. To be a successful generalist, then, we must approach complex systems with a certain naive simplicity.

I am more interested in system thinking to apply to creating complex creations. There are a lot of good ideas here, but for a book that is supposed to help people think it is incredibly badly organized, and he uses terms he does not define and laws he never states explicitly.

It is clearly intended to be a textbook.
