Title: Incoherent jargon that doesn't make a point
Review: I felt obligated to write a review after seeing that all of the other reviews were 5 stars. I found this book to be endless jargon that never seemed to make a point. The reason that I bought the book was that I thought it may offer some insight into business systems architecture that went beyond the standards. What I found was a low level philosophical discussion of things like "beauty" and "power". There is little about system design, this book is mostly about organization structure and corporate politics, and it is a poor discussion at that. What is also misleading is the use of the terms "Chaos" and "Complexity" in the title. My interpretation of these words was that it linked business systems architecture to the field of Chaos Theory. I found nothing in the book that did this. I would recommend that the scientific minded individual avoid this book, however, if loosely worded business management reading is your style, you may like it.
Is the review positive or negative?
