Whether you're rambling around the world or just your own neighborhood, you'll enjoy the adventures of the ultimate ramblers, David Scherer and his wife, Martha. Join them as they travel from Africa to Australia, Rio to Rhodes, and interact with everything from gay penguins to stoned koalas. At once entertaining and inspirational, this is a memoir full of wit, wisdom, and our wondrous world. No doubt, it'll elbow you into doing a little rambling of your own. They've visited one hundred and forty-eight countries, which is more than the Queen herself (not the Cunard vessels, which they've sailed as well, just to keep the record straight). Their maritime rambles include a crash in a hot-air balloon, confrontations with lions and kidnappers, and unwitting incursions into seagoing nudist colonies. They have made nine circuits of the world and one hundred and twenty individual voyages on Crystal Cruises. Given the number of catastrophic blunders they've made en route, it's a wonder they've returned at all, let alone with panache.
This book focuses on systems analysis, broadly defined to also include problem formulation and interpretation of proposed alternatives in terms of the value systems of stakeholders. Therefore, the book is a complement, not a substitute to other books when teaching systems engineering and systems analysis. The nature of problem solving discussed in this book is appropriate to a wide range of systems analyses. Thus the book can be used as a stand-alone book for teaching the analysis of systems. Also unique is the inclusion of broad case studies to stress problem solving issues, making How to Do Systems Analysis a complement to the many fine works in systems engineering available today.
