Complex Adaptive Systems: Modelling Complexity The Practice Perspective: Organisational examples can be used to illustrate the themes covered in the essay. However, the essay is not a case study, it is a theoretical paper.

The essay will be 3,000 (+/- 10%) words (inclusive of appendices, NOT inclusive of references). This work should not be plagiarised and should come to a reasonable conclusion.
