Reseña del libro "Authentic Humanity: The Human Quest for Reality and Truth (en Inglés)"
A Whole New Way of Thinking This book, which explores our uniquely human quest for reality and truth, is at the heart of Dr. Leonard Swidler's exploration of our existence. This is a timely release as our country struggles with the deepest meaning of "what is truth" and "reality?" After the sudden end of the Cold War in 1989, the term 'dialogue" that had hardly been heard of before the Catholic Second Vatican Council (1962-65) and had been gaining popularity since, became so popular that Professor Leonard Swidler and his colleagues created the term Deep Dialogue to indicate they were talking about this largely recent, transformative, whole new way of thinking. At that time, Professor Swidler also began to realize that Deep Dialogue was, as it were, only "one side of the coin" of our humanity, and the other side was Critical Thinking. He developed the two as intimately connected, as reflected in his 1995 online class with the Dialogue Institute at Temple University. While exploring the depths of our authenticity, he realized our "humanity" could not be fully described as only thinking and talking, but needed to include action. He then added: "Competitive Cooperation." "Emotional Intelligence and Imagination,""Spiritual" Akido.As you reach into these pages, each unfolding with a deeper understanding of our "reality" and our "truth," Professor Swidler explores our understandings and misunderstandings through such abstract matters as literature, political affairs, history, and the most comprehensive of all disciplines - religion. Pick up this first volume of the Big Little Books today...big ideas in little volumes.
