How can humans learn to function most effectively in their
individual and social lives and best approach important ethical and
social concerns? "Developing Sanity in Human Affairs" answers this
question through application of general semantics to the fields of
education, counseling, communication, critical thinking,
journalism, and ethics.
General semantics, developed by Alfred Korzybski, is concerned
with how humans can learn to evaluate and act more responsibly in
conducting their individual and social lives. The chapters in this
collection deal with these issues in education and counseling,
social and cultural areas, critical thinking, communications,
humanism, and ethics. Highlights include the Alfred Korzybski
Memorial Lecture, which bridges past and present work in general
semantics and applications to important current problems in media
and other areas of communication. Traditional and revisionist
perspectives on foundations in general semantics are presented, as
are dialogues on critical thinking and general semantics.
