"An imposing edifice of thought. Every one of its twenty chapters
will richly repay careful reading. Those passages dealing with
ethics, love, the significance of knowledge, and the meaning of
life are hard to surpass." - New York Evening Post The title of
this book, Tertium Organum, boldly refers no less to a
reorganization of all knowledge, but it is primarily a study of
psychology, more specifically the psychology of our higher mind.
For Ouspensky what we can call the higher mind represents, within a
single person, the development of an entirely new way of
understanding. In short, psychology is the art of self-study. With
remarkable scope and sophistication, Ouspensky shows us in this
book, which has been hailed as "a work of genius," just how vast
and strange our universe really is.
A truly mind expanding writing that combines science with mysticism
with unprecedented elegance. He presents the world we live in as a
multi dimensional world and time as a motion through this world.
But this isn't a cold and purely analytical explanation but a
masterful presentation filled with similes and analogies. The
physics and mathematics are tightly integrated with mystic
teachings and together they build a stronger base. If you want to
stretch the reach of your imagination and understanding of science,
religion, mathematics and mysticism you can't ignore this work
