I too offer congratulations to Laurie Drinkwater, Louise Buck and Diana
Friedman for a manual, a long time coming, that is a step in the direction
of a revolution in the way not only agricultural science, but all science,
is done. I am writing a critical review of the document, which I will post
here. Systems research has evolved rapidly in recent decades, even since
the manual project was started. My review will suggest changes and
additions that that I believe are updates necessary to inform systems
research.
