false 204527 2 <P>In <i>Thought as a System</i>, 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.<br><br>Elaborating upon principles of the relationship between mind and matter first put forward in <i>Wholeness and the Implicate Order</i>, Professor Bohm rejects the notion that our thinking processes neutrally report on what is `out there' in an objective world. Bohm carefully 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.<br><br>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.</P> 197917 1 12 1994 Thought as a System total:22|5:9|4:9|3:4| 22 93 59 1 5 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2000 Tue Apr 14 22:06:21 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 14 22:06:57 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 05 13:36:23 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 05 13:36:27 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Nov 02 06:40:44 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 06:41:33 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Oct 20 16:05:48 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 20 16:05:52 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Sep 28 08:31:02 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 28 08:31:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Sep 10 11:37:39 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 10 11:37:39 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 09 05:34:10 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 05:34:15 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Sep 08 05:24:18 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 05:24:18 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Sep 03 19:21:57 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 03 19:21:57 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Aug 20 14:40:47 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 20 14:40:47 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Mon Aug 17 14:31:02 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 17 14:31:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Aug 04 06:33:30 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 06:33:30 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 11 02:11:17 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 11 02:11:17 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Sep 05 08:44:55 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 02 08:15:51 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 08:44:55 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jun 14 04:51:02 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 14 04:51:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jun 07 22:33:15 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 07 22:33:15 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri May 08 11:17:34 -0700 2009 Fri May 08 11:17:34 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Apr 30 10:16:29 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 30 10:16:29 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Apr 23 06:40:51 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 23 06:40:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Apr 17 03:45:50 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 03:45:50 -0700 2009
