دانلود کتاب Thought as a System

In Thought as a System, best-selling author David Bohm takes as his
subject the role of thought and knowledge at every level of human
affairs, from our private reflections on personal identity to our collective
efforts to fashion a tolerable civilization.
Elaborating upon principles of the relationship between mind and
matter first put forward in Wholeness and the Implicate Order, 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. In conversations with fifty seminar participants in Ojai,
California, David Bohm offers a radical perspective on an underlying
source of human conflict, and inquires into the possibility of individual
and collective transformation. The late David Bohm was Emeritus
Professor at Birkbeck College, University of London. He was the author
of many articles and books including Causality and Chance in Modern
Physics, Wholeness and the Implicate Order and The Undivided Universe
(with Basil Hiley).
