About the Book

Reality is not as is, but as interpreted. Humans are caged, not freed, by the logic of own thought that conceals everyone behind own egocentric self. Emotions and intuition are created by magic, golden irrational that is ratio and balance. The irrational separates number from magnitude, while this magnitude cannot be found. The logical, rational thought, as the sole expression of our civilization, starts from somewhere, follows a logical path, and ends with a conclusion because all ideas have an end in themselves. How close to this conclusion, or end are we? Is the rational world only a distorted projection of the irrational world? Does civilization make sense only for a linear mind?
