Key points

  • Systems thinking is most useful when applied to mundane coordination problems.
  • Most "complex" systems are actually simple systems coupled together; the coupling is the interesting bit.
  • Commons aren't fragile by nature — they're fragile when their feedback loops are broken.

Our take

Placeholder commentary. In a real entry this would describe how the book's framing of coordination problems intersects with our thinking.
