Announcing the Release of "Insight: Creative Systems Theory's Radical New Picture of Human Possibility"
Dear Colleagues. I’ve just released an important new book that you may find of interest. It is titled, Insight: Creative Systems Theory's Radical New Picture of Human Possibility.?
Of all my of my writings, it most unabashedly highlights what is original and of major significance in the thinking of Creative Systems Theory. It has always been my approach to write ideas as clearly as I am able and leave the recognition of their importance up to readers. But given how much of a stretch Creative Systems Theory can be for many people, I decided to write a book that puts the theory’s significance in the history of ideas forefront. Insight addresses what is fundamentally new in the kind of perspective the theory presents and also what makes that newness critically important as we go forward. It has been both challenging and?great fun to write.
Below is a brief description from the book’s back cover. Insight can be purchased on my author page: www.charlesjohnstonmd.com.

Creative Systems Theory’s Radical New Picture of Human Possibility
By Charles M. Johnston MD
“When we understand them deeply, the ideas of Creative Systems Theory and the concept of Cultural Maturity come to seem like common sense. But this kind of common sense is new—a product of a fundamental leap in how we understand. Many of Creative Systems Theory’s core observations are thus appropriately thought of as radical—indeed, audaciously so. They reflect contributions new to the evolving story of human thought.?

Insight turns to those radical observations and just what makes them new and important. It delves into how the changes that the concept of Cultural Maturity describes will be essential to the future of the species. It examines how a creative frame brings a fundamentally new kind of depth to our understanding of why we believe what we do and the workings of human intelligence. It also looks at how Creative Systems Theory’s systemic vantage lets us successfully address eternal conceptual quandaries, from the nature of free will to the ultimate relationship between the contributions of science and religion—and much more.”?
