Thought As a System

The essential relevance of Bohm's redefinition of thought is the proposal that body, emotion, intellect, reflex, and artifact are now understood as one unbroken field of mutually informing thought. - from the foreword by Lee NicholIn Thought as a System , best-selling author David Bohm takes as his subject the role of thought and knowledge. Professor Bohm rejects the notion that our thinking processes neutrally report on what is 'out there' in an objective world. He explores the manner in which thought actively participates in forming our perceptions, our sense of meaning, and our daily actions. He suggests that collective thought and knowledge have become so automated that we are in large part controlled by them, with a subsequent loss of authenticity, freedom and order.Bohm, David is the author of 'Thought As a System', published 1994 under ISBN 9780415110303 and ISBN 0415110300.
