Description
David Bohm's Thought as a System explores the role of thought and knowledge in shaping our perceptions, sense of meaning, and daily actions. He argues that our thinking processes actively participate in forming our understanding of the world, rather than neutrally reporting on objective reality.
The book examines how collective thought and knowledge can become automated, leading to a loss of authenticity, freedom, and order. Through conversations with seminar participants, Bohm offers a radical perspective on an underlying source of human conflict and inquires into the possibility of individual and collective transformation.
