This book examines how individual, social, scientific, and
ideological "realities" are constructed, after which we naively
assume they are the "real" realities. Contributors include Ernst
von Glaserfeld (known for his cognitive studies with chimpanzees);
cybeneticist Heinz von Foerster; David L. Rosenhan (author of On
Being Sane in Insane Places); microbiologist Francisco J. Varela;
and Gabriel Stolzenberg, professor of mathematics at Northeastern
University. Paul Watzlawick has contributed commentary, an
introduction and an epilogue, and two of the ten essays. For
educated readers, this is the first multidisciplinary presentation
of a subject of vital importance to the way we think and live.
