Welcome to ignorance!

It is the intention that these pages grow into a complete(-ish) picture of my thoughts and ideas about things related to the topic of systems. This is, as anyone who knows anything about the subject will tell you, a task that is impossible to complete. However, I hope that it becomes many steps in the right direction - and along the way it will point out plenty of side roads, playgrounds and libraries that are available for exploration.

Note that this is not, nor does it seek to be, a complete resource telling you everything you need to know about systems - indeed, it probably points to many places that are closer to that ideal. What it is is a personal view - I can only hope that it helps one or two. (including me!)

It will forever be work in progress!

Where do I start

Well, anywhere you like, however the list below suggests some pages that are useful starting points. As you learn about systems you will (I hope) come to realise that since everything tends to be connected to everything else it matters little where you start - serendipity should take you to where you need to be.
