Meer over het boek

Years might be spent gathering the public together. This abstraction, which individuals form, often repulses rather than helps. Adopting the same opinion as the public offers deceptive consolation, as the public exists only in the abstract. A public is a gigantic void, embodying everything and nothing. The text explores themes such as the relationship between arts, business, and change, emphasizing the importance of individual integrity versus corporate conformity. It discusses the professional mindset in contrast to occupational attitude and the challenges of surviving a corporate crash. The work addresses client expectations and critiques vague ideas and wishful thinking. It questions the reasonableness of actions and examines memory loss in various contexts. The notion of "The Human Nature of Organization" is explored, along with social set theory. It critiques individuals and institutions that display artistic sophistication, suggesting they reveal a lack of imagination and emotional depth. Many fail to recognize the horrifying randomness that permeates societal existence, a consequence of their tendency to relax their rational, emotional, and responsible intellect, retreating from engagement with the world around them.
