MDPI publication ‘Systems’, special edition ‘Managing Complexity: A Practitioner’s Guide’

[I have previously shared my concerns about MDPI and this journal here:

…these concerns are only partly assuaged by the well-respected and popular names guest editing and writing in this edition of the journal.

I would really value opinions of readers on the content of this particular special edition.

On a first scan, some of the papers seem intriguing, some seem a little random, and there still feels to me to be something odd about the editing/writing – previously noted in grappling with this journal – which often leaves me wondering if there have been omissions or edits which have made the meaning of sentences and paragraphs unnecessarily hard to grasp. Perhaps it’s just me.

I would also have been doubtful if someone told me Dave Snowden endorsed the concept of *managing* complexity, but anyway…

can more capable minds than mine help me to understand?]
