Six Blind Elephants: Volume II - Understanding Ourselves and Each Other Applications and Explorations of Scope and Category by Steve Andreas

This two-volume book presents a detailed “unified field theory” of experience, thinking, and personal change that goes beyond NLP to outline and explain the structure of any experience or change of experience. If you have ever found yourself out of choices - either in your own life, or in your work with others - you know how nice it would be to have choices about what to do next. The fundamental distinction between scope and category offers a way to describe and track someone’s experience - from ordinary troubles and difficulties to positive mystic experiences of union or oneness. The same knowledge provides surprisingly endless possibilities for changing your experience when you want it to be different. Rich examples gleaned from a variety of different therapists and a lifetime of experience illustrate every aspect. Contents Acknowledgements vi Introduction vii 1.
