Who Should Read This
Anyone who:
- Has ever stood between a Coke and a Pepsi machine and thought, “There has to be a water around here somewhere.”
- Suspects “Democrat vs. Republican” is about as natural as “Coke vs. Pepsi” placement.
- Is tired of fake either/or choices and wants vocabulary (like “bivalency” and “webs of causality”) to complain about them more intelligently.
- Enjoys their systems thinking with a side of mild nerdiness and marital banter.
