The Hidden Third
Basarab Nicolescu
Translated by William Garvin
"Words start to take on meaning,
and therefore life, when they connect
with scientific experience and inner experience. Generally speaking, this meaning is not found in dictionaries."
Basarab Nicolescu
"Where does modern science stand in the essential poetic enterprise? Himself a high-level particle physicist, Nicolescu reports the present crisis of the hard sciences: the demand, as he puts it, for an ´ontological opening,´a recognition of being."
David Appelbaum
