“‘Patterns of Conflict’ represents a compendium of ideas and actions for winning and losing in a highly competitive world. ‘Organic Design for Command and Control’ surfaces the implicit arrangements that permit cooperation in complex, competitive, fast moving situations. ‘The Strategic Game of ? and ?’ emphasizes the mental twists and turns we undertake to surface appropriate schemes or designs for realizing our aims or purposes. ‘Destruction and Creation’ lays out in abstract but graphic fashion the ways by which we evolve mental concepts to comprehend and cope with our environment. ‘Revelation’ makes visible the metaphorical message that flows from this ‘Discourse.’”
