Jim's Review
This slim book rewires how you see everything. Once you understand systems thinking, you can't unsee it — feedback loops are everywhere, from your morning routine to global economics. Meadows writes with remarkable clarity about complex ideas, making this accessible even to a bookworm with no engineering background. It's the kind of book that makes you smarter every time you burrow through it again. It rewards a re-read, and then another.
