Description for Chaotic Logic: Language, Thought, and Reality from the Perspective of Complex Systems Science (IFSR International Series in Systems Science and Systems Engineering)
Hardcover. A work to apply complex systems science to the psychological interplay of order and chaos. The author draws on thought from a range of disciplines - both conventional and unorthodox - to address such questions as the nature of consciousness, the relation between mind and reality, and the justification of belief systems.
