Alfred Korzybski Libri

Alfred Korzybski fu un ingegnere, matematico e filosofo polacco, celebre per aver creato la teoria della Semantica Generale. Il suo lavoro approfondisce l'intricata relazione tra linguaggio, pensiero e realtà, esplorando come possiamo affinare la nostra percezione del mondo attraverso l'applicazione consapevole del linguaggio. Le teorie di Korzybski indagano come le nostre rappresentazioni interne plasmino le nostre azioni e come queste rappresentazioni possano essere modificate per favorire una comunicazione e una comprensione più efficaci.

Selections from Science and Sanity represents Alfred Korzybski's authorized abridgement of his magnum opus, Science and Sanity: An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics. This second edition, published in response to the recent Korzybski revival, adds new introductory material and a revised index, providing an accessible introduction to Korzybski's arguments concerning the need for a non-Aristotelian approach to knowledge, thought, perception, and language, to coincide with our non-Newtonian physics and non-Euclidean geometries, to Korzybski's practical philosophy, applied psychology, pragmatics of human communication, and educational program. Selections from Science and Sanity serves as an excellent introduction to general semantics as a system intended to aid the individual's adjustment to reality, enhance intellectual and creative activities, and alleviate the many social ills that have plagued humanity throughout our history.
