{{author|Alan Moore}}, {{br|Jerusalem}}}}[[Systems theory]] eschews the reductionist, deterministic, “[[normal science|scientific]]” disposition and views the world in terms of inter-operating systems. That is to say, it treats the ordinary interactions of life as [[complex]] and not merely [[complicated]] problems to solve; as interactions of and between systems. System interactions are necessarily complex in that they are not finite, they are [[non-linear]], and the rules of engagement nor information about the system are neither complete, coherent nor static.
