More about the book
We present one of the greatest books in the world. It is said that there are only three great books: the first is ORGANUM written by Aristotle; the second is THE SECOND ORGANUM written by Bacon; and the third, by P.D. Ouspensky, TERTIUM ORGANUM. 'Tertium' means third. Ouspensky introduces the book by saying that "the first exists but not before the third. The third existed even before the first came into existence." Ouspensky brings together many extraordinary facets of Relativity Theory, Kantian philosophy, Eastern mysticism, Western spiritual traditions, ways of looking at the symbolism of art and ordinary life, and powerful revelations from mathematics. In this book, he is a master of using images, metaphors, and analogies to help free the mind, opening the intuition to amazing areas of wonder. The suggestive power of many ideas in Tertium Organum is at a breathtaking level. We especially recommend this book to anyone who has an abiding love of Philosophy, Religion, Science, and Art. If you want a book that will challenge you, this is it. One day these ideas are going to shake the very foundations of mainstream science, of mankind's collective view of "reality."
