Wheatley, Margaret. (1992). Leadership and the New Science San Francisco: Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc.

Wheatley advocates examining social science settings in the context of changing systems. She relies heavily on analogies to dynamic system studies in the physical and biological sciences. Dynamic systems studies are based on complicated mathematical models. Although there are good arguments and interesting points for examining social sciences with the awareness that they may often be changing systems not particularly well represented by linear mathematical models, their is an over reliance on the use of analogies to dynamic systems models to imply validity in using the same methods in social sciences.
