General Semantics and Contemporary Thomism
Author: Margaret Gorman
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 9780803250758
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
To one who has just begun to make his acquaintance with the literature of general semantics, Mother Gorman's book will prove an invaluable guide. From her first chapter giving a historical sketch of the main ideas to her final chapter surveying the ways in which they have influenced education in America, the book is a mine of useful information. Mother Gorman is not a general semanticist. Her reservations about what she regards as the profound philosophical errors of general semantics naturally keep her from aligning herself with this school of thought. But she is an unusually interested bystander and a diligent scholar. Hence she has made an extremely thorough search of the literature, with the result that in many ways she knows a lot more about general semantics than many who call themselves semanticists.--S. I. Hayakawa

Developing Sanity in Human Affairs
Author: Susan Kodish
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
How can humans learn to function most effectively in their individual and social lives and best approach important ethical and social concerns? Developing Sanity in Human Affairs answers this question through application of general semantics to the fields of education, counseling, communication, critical thinking, journalism, and ethics. General semantics, developed by Alfred Korzybski, is concerned with how humans can learn to evaluate and act more responsibly in conducting their individual and social lives. The chapters in this collection deal with these issues in education and counseling, social and cultural areas, critical thinking, communications, humanism, and ethics. Highlights include the Alfred Korzybski Memorial Lecture, which bridges past and present work in general semantics and applications to important current problems in media and other areas of communication. Traditional and revisionist perspectives on foundations in general semantics are presented, as are dialogues on critical thinking and general semantics.
