Science and Sanity: An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems and General Semantics

Science and Sanity:
An Introduction to Non-Aristotelian Systems
and General Semantics

by Alfred Korzybski

Fifth Edition (1994)

Preface by Robert P. Pula

The fundamental, irreplaceable exposition of general semantics. In this work Korzybski developed important lines of formulating neglected by subsequent authors.  A must-have for the student of general semantics interested in the original formulations of Alfred Korzybski.

In general semantics we are concerned with the sanity of the race, including particularly methods of prevention; eliminating from home, elementary, and higher education inadequate aristotelian types of evaluation which too often lead to the un-sanity of the race, and building up for the first time a positive theory of sanity, as a workable non-aristotelian system.
