## What Jamie wrote

I've read [Thinking in Systems](https://www.chelseagreen.com/product/thinking-in-systems/) myself but this article makes me want to re-read it (and maybe [Don't Think of an Elephant](https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781603585941)). The callouts to three issues to watch for in Systems Thinking (err models) is worth consideration.
