I Am, Therefore I Think: A Worldview for the Twenty-first Century

by Albert Low

Our times cry out for a new worldview; at present, our conception of the world leaves us without coherence, meaning, purpose, or value. In I Am, Therefore I Think, author Dr. Albert Low presents a new worldview empowering humans to act in a different, more constructive, less competitive, and obsessed way. Drawing on his life's experiences for inspiration, Low merges Western thought with Zen Buddhism to create a new worldview. In I Am, Therefore I Think, he • gives an overview of why a new worldview is needed;
• provides a practical example of ambiguity at work in our relations with each other;
• presents an example of dynamic unity and the dynamic center at work in the corporate world and shows how dynamic unity might be measured;
• develops the notion of the dynamic center and gives examples of its importance in life;
• shows the connection of the dynamic center with schizophrenia;
• discusses how this new worldview enables us to legitimately study feelings in animals;
• discusses creativity in human beings and relates human creativity to creativity in nature.
I Am, Therefore I Think shows how a new worldview would restore meaning and purpose and help us on the way to a genuine spiritual life.
