You can learn more about the book and the authors at our web site. Our plan is to add additional material to this blog as the authors feel it can contribute to systems engineering methods. This material will be added as it is available rather than on a regular weekly basis. The authors welcome comments on any of the blog articles and corrections, suggestions or other comments on the book. If any readers have material they feel contributes to systems engineering methods that isn't covered in the book please contact us via a comment and we will consider adding your material to this blog.
