Hardcover. Condition: New. The Book of Radical General Semantics, Volume Two is arranged into nine Parts. Parts I-VII correspond structurally to the Parts of Volume One. The content, of course, is new. Part I begins with an introduction to the motor of Korzybski's general semanticsthe Structural Differential. Part II revisits Silent Practiceattention to sensory experienceas integral to saner evaluative processes. Silent Practice precedes The Devices of General Semantics (Part III) as it is a skill that facilitates the 'fraction of a second psychological delay' intended by the devices. In Part IV, The 'Self' and Free Will, the Structural Differential is turned inward to provide a multi-levelled map of one's very own self in which oneself is three: event-self, object-self, label-self. In Part V, Politics, the formulations of general semantics are applied to such diverse issues as 'Tough Love,' 'Democracy and Sanity,' 'I and Thou,' 'War,' 'The Bipolar Disorder of Civilization,' 'Mapping Personal Responsibility in Bio-social Space.' The Meta Model (Part VI) revisits the NLP Meta Model as a supplement to the set of extensional devices at the heart of General Semantics. Part VII, Participation: Myth Art Religion, 'The Science of Final Participation,' counterposes to religion our participation in the event. Part VII, General Semantics and Mindfulness brings to General Semantics meditation practices, the Feldenkrais Method, Sensory Awareness, Contemplative Photography and Simone Weil. Part IX, Two Radicals, puts Ludwig Wittgenstein and Gregory Bateson in dialogue with Korzybski.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. The Book of Radical General Semantics, arranged into seven Parts, begins with a new look at the motor of Korzybski's general semantics-the Structural Differential. Part II introduces Silent Practice-attention to sensory experience-as integral to saner evaluative processes. Silent Practice precedes The Devices of General Semantics (Part III) as it is a skill that facilitates that "fraction of a second psycho-logical delay" intended by the devices. In Part IV, The "Self" and Free Will, the Structural Differential is turned inward to provide a multi-levelled map of one's very own self in which oneself is three: event-self, object-self, label-self. In Part V, Politics, the devices and formulations of general semantics are applied to such diverse issues as President Obama's 'You Didn't Build That' speech, the ultra-left 'Tiqqun' group, and the Canadian monarchy. The Meta Model purposely comes late (Part VI) in the book. Here Gad returns the Meta Model developed as a practice within Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to its origin in General Semantics. Part VII. Participation: Myth Art Religion brings together a number of resonances of radical general semantics with studies of music, photography, phenomenology, filming theoretical concepts, writing, myth and religion. While most of the writing is by Gad Horowitz, Colin Campbell has contributed a number of very rich chapters especially in Part VII.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This important new study in Canadian politics discusses the role of socialism in Canada. By means of comparison between the English-Canadian and the American political importance of socialism in Canada than the United States. In this section Louis Hartz's theory of "fragment" cultures is carried forward and applied to Canada. The remainder of the book is devoted to a detailed historical study of the relationship between the labour movement and the socialist parties in Canada. It starts in the early years of the century and follows the story through to its significant conclusion-the support (and formation) by many Canadian unions of a labour party. The brilliant analysis of Canadian politics in Hartzian terms restores ideology to a place in our political culture, and the meticulous, objective recounting of labour's involved in the formation of the NDP is a timely and valuable contribution to our limited understanding of how Canadian political parties "live and move and have their being." The main sources used by the author were correspondence, minutes, and other materials in the files of the NDP and the Canadian Labour Congress, and personal interviews with labour leaders and socialist politicians.
