Malaria can be understood as a large set of managed, complex adaptive systems. Lewis Hackett has famously sad that,
…malaria is so moulded and altered by local conditions that it becomes a thousand different diseases and epidemiological puzzles. Like chess, it is played with a few pieces, but is capable of an infinite variety of situations.
This local peculiarity presents enormous challenges for managing malaria because it implies that each system could be unique in the way it responds to malaria control.
