O knihe
There may be more to reality than what experience and understanding allow. Still we yearn to improve our contact with the world. We attempt to enhance and expand the limits of our thinking and of our perception. Increasingly we reject the widely accepted notion that contradictions are impossible and irrational. It now seems possible and rational for us to believe that the world contains contradictions. We can believe, for example, that Jastrow's duck-rabbit drawing is and is not a drawing of a duck. Or that the Necker Cube represents a cube that is both open and closed. Or that a subatomic particle can be and not be in a certain location at the same time. Yet we do not simultaneously experience the contradictory aspects of those things, even when the contradictory aspects are clearly accesible to us at the same time. This book explores the nature of this perceptual limitation as a prelude to overcoming what reality currently feels like to us.
