cover of Biomatrix: A Systems Theory in Graphics

(full colour paperback, 2012, 178 pages, ISBN 9780620522915)

Biomatrix: A Systems Theory in Graphics introduces Biomatrix Systems Theory. It includes presentation of the theory as published on our sister webpage, biomatritheory.com.

The purpose of this book is to put the visual representation of Biomatrix Systems Theory in the foreground. It illustrates how all concepts of the theory are contained within the biomatrix (the web of life) and how they co-produce it as a web-field continuum. It depicts in a coherent and increasingly detailed way how all systems are organised. This is achieved through a graphic alphabet which consists of a few elements. They combine to show all aspects of the theory and its application in a methodology for managing change in systems.
