Architectural Thinking Dr William S Chao

Architectural Thinking, also known as Systems Thinking 2.0, is an evolution of Systems Thinking 1.0. The general approach to human thinking is based on Function, Process, or Logic. The systems thinking 1.0 is better than functional thinking, process thinking, and the logical thinking, because it is based on the structural aspects of the system. The theoretical foundation of architectural thinking (systems thinking 2.0) is based on the "Structure-Behavior Coalescence Architecture" (SBC Architecture for short). When using the "SBC architecture" to do systemic thinking, it will integrate the structural aspects of the system and the behavioral aspects of the system into one. This book teaches us to use architectural thinking. And we conclude that architectural thinking (systems thinking 2.0) is much more advanced than functional thinking, process thinking, logical thinking, and the systems thinking 1.0.
