Manhood of Humanity
The Science and Art of Human Engineering
Alfred Korzybski was een Poolse ingenieur, wiskundige en filosoof, vooral bekend als de grondlegger van de Algemene Semantiek. Zijn werk duikt in de ingewikkelde relatie tussen taal, denken en realiteit, en onderzoekt hoe we onze perceptie van de wereld kunnen verfijnen door bewust taalgebruik. Korzybski's theorieën onderzoeken hoe onze interne representaties ons gedrag beïnvloeden en hoe deze representaties kunnen worden aangepast om effectievere communicatie en begrip te bevorderen.

An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics - Second Edition
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.
