Bull. 12. Oct. 19, 1998. Our Homeokinetic View of Processes and Things – Food for Thought.<\/b><\/p>\n
Attend, attend, if you are our friend. We have neglected you for months. Why? We were occupied through July 1998, with an overviewing homeokinetic (H-K) conference at U. Conn. – Storrs, under the sponsorship of our ecological psychology hosts, and some of our very loved young ones. The nominal occasion was the 80th birthday of our initiating (prime?) mover; occasions both for the production of a Festschrift-to-come and a preprimer to H-K. Attendance and interchange, and plans for an H-K future were wonderful. But even more inspirational, it has led to what is now a \u2018first public production\u2019 of our school, a genuine primer. Forgive us, if out of necessity, we charge for it.<\/p>\n
Hot off the press, now, 1998, there is a slim book available:<\/p>\n
A Primer for Homeokinetics: A Physical Foundation for Complex Systems<\/p>\n
Its authors: Art Iberall, Harry Soodak<\/p>\n
Cri-de-Coeur Press, $9.00 (+ $3 S&H).<\/p>\n
Write, send check to A, Iberall, Cri-de-Coeur, 5070 Avenida del Sol, Laguna Hills, CA, 92653-1876.<\/p>\n
What is it? It is a summary of 90 principles that make up a physical core for H-K thinking – about Nature, Life, Humankind, Mind, and Society. It will give you something to mull over. We do not want you to think the undertaking is trivial.<\/p>\n
As measured in antinomies, we offer you the following measures. Since there are effectively 90 different – but connected – thoughts developed therein, and each likely can be counterviewed, you the reader may have to form quite a number of different possible maps of reality, or a skein of pathways mapping reality. For example, if you devote a trivial amount of time such as an hour per depiction, just running through all the points, each separately, would require 2×90 hours (perhaps 6 weeks) of mental effort. Alternatively, reconsidering the points in multiple combinations could require a much higher – more limiting – effort as great as 290<\/sup>, which is of order 1027<\/sup> hours or 1023<\/sup> years (time since the Big Bang 1010<\/sup> years). That, as time spent in an extended banquet could keep you quite busy eating and chewing for many universal lifetimes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bull. 12. Oct. 19, 1998.
