Looking for the best introduction to complex systems thinking

Best introduction to complex systems / systems thinking? Something that takes a person from seeing everything as a complicated system that can be understood just in terms of parts, to seeing that there's a whole different way of looking at things that's necessary for clarity.

If you want to disambiguate the things I'm asking about here, by all means do! - general systems theory - systems thinking - complex systems - complexity science - nonlinearity, power laws, etc

But I should stress that systems thinking IS NOT THE SAME as complexity science. This difference really matters and it is important for more people to be trained in complexity so they can understand the nonlinear dynamics of real-world complex systems.

Also I haven't done this course but it's got some rave reviews and it's probably the best high-touch introduction you can get to Complexity at this time. By @zaidhassan, whose work (The Social Labs Revolution, 10-in-10) I appreciate deeply. courses.complexity.university/covid19

Mmm just occurred to me that this 2017 @longnow talk by @ncasenmare, that I attended in person (& where I met @utotranslucence) might actually be a great candidate here. longnow.org/seminars/02017…
