From Reality to History:

More about the book

Challenging the classical notion of unity as the foundation of reality, Edgar Morin explores the complexities of existence that include change, movement, and disorder. He critiques traditional cosmological, anthropological, and political thought that seeks a singular substance—whether called Being, Spirit, or social contract—while overlooking the inherent diversity and complexity of life. Morin's work invites a reevaluation of these established paradigms, urging a deeper understanding of the multifaceted nature of reality.
