Abstract

What exactly is so appealing in formal science, such that its influence can be seen in numerous disciplines? This contemporary addiction to practical convenience in formal science has turned a blind eye to its other side. This book provides a way to understand the nature of formal science, in relation to systems theory for practical convenience.
