WorldWideWeb Publications:
Science Limited a 12-chapter book critical of scientism
and the role of both natural and human sciences today, 1998 - revised 2004). This web book deals
with intellectual, social and ethical challenges remaining to science.
The great achievements of science are of course not rejected, but
these have already been covered adequately in the literature. Instead,
shortcoming in science's achievements are examined with a view to
clarifying the limits to scientific understanding - both at present
and in principle.
The
Philosophy of Understanding - Universal knowledge & values
a 7-chapter study of human understanding in general; its nature,
main structure, functions and likely limits. The full scope of explicit
forms of understanding is considered, from practical, inter-personal,
communicational, scientific and philosophical understanding to ethical,
metaphysical and spiritual insight.
The
Human Whole - An Outline of the 'Higher Psychology a 23-chapter book,
revised, extended edition 1998 - revised 2004). This book aims to give an understanding of person-centered human psychology in clear terms avoiding scientific-technical
language and the 'objectivistic' approach. It would provide a frame
of reference to aid in integrating personal understanding of oneself and of others. Basic assumptions of modern Western psychology are
re-interpreted and brought into a holistic perspective, which focusses on psychic health, consciousness, human possibilities and challenges
of personal development. It deals only secondarily with bodily conditioning,
psychopathology or psychic illness.
