The Missing Link identified by Michele Kaiser-Cooke explains the
fundamental translatability of the world. Based on Darwin's theory
of evolution, a link is established between various human
interpretations of reality, as manifested in cultures, languages
and disciplines. These different constructions of reality are
essentially commensurable and therefore also translatable because
of the common experience of the conditio humana. The only limits to
translatability, whether between cultures, languages or
disciplines, are set by the limits of human communication. By
clearly defining the translation paradigm, the author makes it
possible to explain the commensurability of all languages within
the concept of the indissoluble unity of theory and practice.
