Description
Thinking in Promises: Designing Systems for Cooperation by Mark Burgess This insightful book introduces Promise Theory, a bottom-up approach to understanding how parts combine to form a whole. By examining the behavior of individual components and their interactions, Promise Theory offers a universal framework for cooperation that can be applied across various domains, including technology and the workplace. The goal of Promise Theory is to reveal the behavior of a system from the sum of its parts, taking the viewpoint of the individual components rather than the system as a whole. This approach has practical applications in documenting system behaviors from a bottom-up perspective.
