  Table of contents:

The nature of the world isn't necessarily as it appears. Finding simple solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems are often just a matter of looking at the situation differently. Instead, people are confused by complexity and intimidated by scale. But the world is a delicate place filled with predictable patterns, and in anticipating and understanding them we can harness the eloquent power of small things. Simplexity elucidates dozens of situations where we are fooled by the world around us. Kluger identifies the roots of poverty, and shows how a hundred well-targeted micro loans can revitalize a community. He shows how the well-being complex ecosystem with thousands of relationships may in fact only depend on the health of a single keystone species. He demonstrates how, in many ways, a truck driver's job is far more complicated than that of a senior manager. There are tremendous real life applications for the complexity processes examined in Simplexity--and the world's visionaries are only just beginning to realize it.
