Summary: Introducing Korzybski
Comment: Alfred Korzybski was one of the great unacknowledged geniuses of the twentieth century. He influenced a host of other thinkers and writers, among them Buckminster Fuller, Robert Heinlein, L. Ron Hubbard. This is an excellent introduction and explanation of his work, and I recommend it. Korzybski's great work, "Science and Sanity" (1933), can be a difficult book at over 760 pages. I thus I tried to get this book, "Drive Yourself Sane," (about 200 pages) but the first edition was out of print. I was forced to tackle "Science and Sanity" alone. I had to read it three times through over a period of several years. I wish I'd had this book, "Drive Yourself Sane" (second edition) to help me through some of the rough spots. It is well organized, nicely laid out, and has a valuable glossary in the back. It also includes valuable personal accounts from the authors. Even an expert in general semantics can gain knowledge from this book. I found that it filled in gaps in my knowledge of the subject (general semantics), gave me some new insights, and told me what others had been doing in the field since 1933. Regardless of whether you are interested in Korzybski or not, you won't finish this book without at least a little IQ rise.
