If you are looking for other books, I’d also recommend “Normal Accidents” by Charles Perrow which is focused on what kinds of systems lend themselves to catastrophic malfunctions. From bakeries to nuclear reactors. It has a huge focus on how unimportant (and predictable) “human error” is to causing systemic problems and catastrophes.
Once you start seeing systems in terms of how coupled, complex, and the catastrophic potential they have/are, it gives you a new insight into how things work and function (at least it did for me)
