<div><font face="Aptos" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"> </span></font></div>

<div><font color="#156082"><b>Editor:</b></font></div>

<div><b>Polinpapilinho Katina, </b>University of South Carolina Upstate, United States</div>

<div><font color="#156082"><b>About the book:</b></font></div>

<div style="text-align:left;">This edited textbook aims to offer a timely and comprehensive exploration of critical infrastructure systems through the lens of systems theory and complexity science. Critical infrastructures are the systems, assets, networks,

 and facilities that are essential for the functioning of a society and its economy. They provide services so fundamental that their disruption or destruction would have serious consequences for national security, public health and safety, economic stability,

 or a nation’s way of life. Arguably, critical infrastructures inherently operate in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environment due to evolving threats (both man-made and otherwise) and dependencies.

</div>

<div style="text-align:left;"> </div>

<div style="text-align:left;">The goal of this book is to provide a comprehensive collection of the latest research on methodologies, methods, tools, techniques, and strategies for addressing Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity (VUCA) in the

 domain of critical infrastructures—such as energy, water and wastewater, transportation, information & communications technology (ICT), finance, food & agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare, government and emergency services, and defense and security. The

 ultimate aim is to guide the transformation of infrastructure systems from a fragile state to a more resilient one, drawing on the principles of systems theory and complexity science.</div>
