Overview: .E‘ opinione diffusa che sia la filosofia che la matematica non abbiano una immediata utilità pratica. In questo libro si mostra invece che molti metodi di risoluzione dei problemi delle organizzazioni (aziendali e non) si fondano su premesse attinte, anche inconsapevolmente proprio dalla filosofia, dalla matematica, ma anche da nuclei di pensiero sistemico ben visibili in filosofi ante litteram. Gli esempi sono numerosissimi e attraversano l’intera storia della cultura umana. Si pensi ad esempio alle Proporzioni di Talete, alla Distanza di Pitagora, alla Logica di Aristotele, ai dis

Overview: Despite the many advances made in the diagnosis and therapy of cancer, the mortality rate is still about half that of the incidence rate. However, the odds are not evenly distributed. Prognosis for some cancers is good, but for others, few patients will survive 12 months. This latter group of cancers is characterised by a proclivity to disseminate malignant cells in the host organ. The degree of surgery possible may be limited by the critical nature of the organ, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy are of palliative value only. In some cases systemic metastases occur, but in other case
