This booklet was prepared as a handout manual for the Short Course on Complexity Science and Interactive Management taught for Mr. Phil Ernzen and the PSOL students, 15-18 Feb. 1999, at Room 311, Johnson Center in George Mason University. On pp. 36-41 of the manual is a short document titled CHRONOLOGY RELATED TO A SCIENCE OF COMPLEXITY, GENERIC DESIGN SCIENCE, AND INTERACTIVE MANAGEMENT(First Draft). Most of the manual is a collection of printouts of transparencies.
