anti-planning - fundamental part of TSA

It is good for planning adherents to keep in mind that anti-planning has some good things going for it.

Moreover, science - the foundation of all planning - is itself not a monument of truth but subject to considerable change (i.e. "deception"). According to Churchman the main claim to fame of the systems approach is the expansion of our capacity for inquiry (SH): "The ultimate meaning of the systems approach, therefore, lies in the creation of a theory of deception and in a fuller understanding of the ways in which the human being can be deceived about his world and in an interaction between these different viewpoints."
