Reflections on the Fourth Exeter Complexity in Health and Social Care Conference September 22–24, Exeter University

[摘要] We learned the difference between winking and blinking (the former is intentional, a crucially important feature of human behaviour); about Trojan mice (small ideas planted into organisational communities that assist and support change processes); and that Chapter 17 of John Steinbeck's East of Eden is probably the first literary description of a complex and evolving system. And, when relaxing over coffee, we could enjoy the exhibition of complexity paintings by Surrey-based artist Mateo Willis — backed up by his engaging parallel workshop on the last day of the conference.
