This is an attempt for me to make sense of these ideas and create values for the ones who would like to jump into this world of systems in a structured but not (far from) finalized way. This is an exploration for both of us so we might as well do it together and help each other out.

With that said, let’s get started.
Context
In my last blog, I mentioned I am on a mission: make sense of this 2021 Map of Complexity Science created by Brian Castellani & Lasse Gerrits. I thought I was going to start from the top (With the Mathematics of Complexity purple bubble)— since I had planned it and everything would be perfect. However, as I started diving deeper into that topic, I realized I had to start from somewhere else, and this place is “Systems Theory”. So, today, I will present a quick and summarized introduction to this field alongside the main names presented by Castellani and Gerrits in their map. So let’s get to it!
Introduction
I am a break-down-the-words type of girl. Every time I try to understand something, the…
