This review is from: Time, Space & Knowledge: A New Vision of Reality (Paperback)
I still haven't received this book so I dont know what to say. I find it odd that I have heard nothing from anyone about what has happened to it. I look forward to receiving it since I did pay money.

Experiments in applied phenomenology,
By Myron Makewater "redcrosseknight" (Laramie) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Time, Space & Knowledge: A New Vision of Reality (Paperback)
This book guides the reader to an understanding of time and space by an unusual means. The author states a proposition, discusses it in the context of other views, and gives the reader a chance to find out on his/her own through a series of experiments or exercises. Heidegger would be proud.This is a book to be taken as seriously as any other major contribution to twentieth-century philosophy, but I don't think its intended audience has responded as it ought to. I'm afraid that the poor design of the text may have limited its readership; the abrasive 1970's cover art is now badly dated, and the new-agey look undercuts the book's credibility among the more narrow-minded of intellectuals. It just doesn't look like the book it is. Further, the fact of the author's background as a Tibetan lama may keep those uninterested in "Eastern" spirituality away. While the author is in fact a Buddhist teacher, this is NOT a book about Buddhism. Check your Orientalism at the door. (Funny that Heidegger's nasty Nazi history doesn't deter a serious and rigorous approach to his philosophy in the way that a Buddhist background might have.) Looking for a dissertation topic in philosophy, psychology, or even physics? Poke around in Time, Space, and Knowledge. There are plenty of leads here to investigate. Have fun and enjoy the field!

Fascinating.,
By "novel1st" (Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Time, Space & Knowledge: A New Vision of Reality (Paperback)
Time, Space, and Knowledge delves questions of personal identity and of time and space like few other books.Practical, extensive exercises are included to demonstrate the concepts. One of these includes the visualisation of an immense human body and its detailed exploration until one becomes familiar with it. Then the form is superimposed on one's own body, which is then similarly explored down to the microscopic, even to the quantum effect, where we can see: where does your I rate this 5 out of 5 for fascinating and 1 out of 5 for bedtime reading.
