Waves and Stones

Viac o knihe

The book explores the philosophical divide between 'waves,' which perceive gradual progress, and 'stones,' which focus on abrupt changes. Graham Harman identifies this dualism as a fundamental paradox in human thought, present across various disciplines such as mathematics and politics. By tracing its historical roots from Aristotle to Bergson, he offers a unified theory that reshapes our understanding of continuity and discontinuity, revealing its impact on our lives and perspectives.
