Meet Phluttr - a diabolically addictive new social network and a villainess, heroine, enemy, and/or bestie to millions. Phluttr has ingested every fact and message ever sent to, from, and about her innumerable users. Her capabilities astound her makers - and they don't even know the tenth of it. But what's the purpose of this stunning creation? Is it a front for something even darker and more powerful than the NSA?

The best book I will never recommend out loud
Revisado: 07-15-18
This book explores thought provoking concepts in an accessible way. Completely enjoyable. It will have to remain an un-revealed guilty pleasure for me, as the story at times reads like a technocrat’s Harry Potter. The plot is a little too indulgent to keep your suspension of belief in place without interruption. The thought provoking concepts encourage the reader past those moments. I cant believe I am saying this but, sequel please.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 152
Weaving together cutting-edge social science with riveting stories that take us from the front lines of the Volkswagen scandal to backstage at the Oscars, and from deep beneath the Gulf of Mexico to the top of Mount Everest, Chris Clearfield and András Tilcsik explain how the increasing complexity of our systems creates conditions ripe for failure and why our brains and teams can't keep up. They highlight the paradox of progress: Though modern systems have given us new capabilities, they've become vulnerable to surprising meltdowns - and even to corruption and misconduct.

You work within complex systems: Read this book
Revisado: 05-09-18
Overcoming system failure in an increasingly complex world is a daunting topic. Don't hesitate to read this book that lays out how every one of us can contribute to building simple and successful systems to stay ahead of complex system meltdown. Favorite topics within this book include Pre-mortems and how Charles Parrow's Technology Classification Matix can help us.
Don't skip the epilogue. There is an excellent reference to how Yeats' The Second Comming is used inaccurately to describe why world news seems to be getting progressively worse.
One of the most useful and strangely comforting books I have read in the past few years.
