Science & Mathematics - The Life and Behavior of Living Organisms: A General Theory

Description

Book Synopsis: Jaques presents a totally new general theoretical foundation for understanding the individual and social behavior of all living organisms. In contrast to existing theories of behavior which are static, Jaques has succeeded in breaking through to a truly dynamic orientation. This breakthrough, resulted from his fundamental research into work organizations that led to the realization that the difference between inanimate processes and all living behavior, is that all living behavior is composed of intentional goal-directed work.This continuous work entails the use of judgment in choosing goals and in making the decisions necessary to get to these goals. This work process is the same in all living organisms, including humans. It is an ineffable process of the total organism, inaccessible to direct observation and experience. Intentionality is the dynamic of behavior. This discovery has led over the past 50 years to extensive discoveries--objective measures of work complexity, and of the level of complexity (capability) of individuals in all species; how human language differs from communication in other species; the need to distinguish between horizontal evolutionary mutations within a given level of capability, and vertical evolution to species with higher levels of complexity; the nature of freedom within mutual-trust inducing constraints. Set forth to radically change the nature of all behavioral and social sciences in the new millenium, Jaques' analysis is essential reading for all scholars, students, and researchers as well as the general public involved with the behavior of living organisms.

Details

Are you fascinated by the complexity of living organisms? Do you strive to understand the intricate workings of their behavior? Look no further than "The Life and Behavior of Living Organisms: A General Theory" by Jaques. This groundbreaking book presents a completely new perspective on the behavior of all living organisms, offering a dynamic and insightful approach that will revolutionize your understanding. Unlike existing theories, Jaques delves deep into the essence of intentional, goal-directed work that defines every living organism.

Through years of extensive research and observation, Jaques has uncovered the fundamental workings of living behavior. This process, common to all species including humans, involves the continuous use of judgment to choose and pursue goals. It is this complexity and intentionality that sets living organisms apart from inanimate processes. By unraveling the mysteries of this ineffable process, Jaques lays the foundation for a true understanding of behavior.

With this remarkable discovery, Jaques has unlocked a treasure trove of knowledge in the field. His research has led to objective measures of work complexity, allowing us to assess an individual's capability in any species. Furthermore, we gain valuable insights into the unique nature of human language, as well as distinguishing between different types of evolutionary mutations. This book is so much more than just an academic text; it holds the potential to reshape our understanding of all behavioral and social sciences.

Whether you're a scholar, student, researcher, or simply someone intrigued by the intricate workings of living organisms, "The Life and Behavior of Living Organisms: A General Theory" is a must-read. Jaques' analysis transcends traditional boundaries and provides a fresh perspective that will leave you captivated. Take the plunge into this extraordinary journey of discovery by clicking here. Don't miss out on the opportunity to broaden your knowledge and deepen your understanding of the behavior of all living organisms.
