Its effects on individual and group behaviors can foster creativity or create invisible prisons. We navigate incompleteness with approximations and, too often, end up on the ‘dark side’.\n\nFuzzy on the Dark Side resembles a tourist’s trip much more than a scientist’s expedition, and is for anyone interested in a broader understanding of an individual’s mental life and how identities, incompleteness, and social contexts shape it.\n\nAs we examine approximations and think about their origins and the problems they can create, the reader will encounter glimpses from physics, biology, philosophy of science, management, marketing, politics, systems theory, fuzzy logic, geometry, design and creativity, culture, and neuro-science and more...\n\nFuzzy on the Dark Side is a book about incompleteness, creativity, thinking, identities, and systems. Roughly - it is an approximation of the 'Approximate Thinking' super idea.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1803413867\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1803413867.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hijazi, Ahmad\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43240800354365,"sku":"BVV.1803413867.VG","price":15.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/fuzzy-on-the-dark-side-approximate-thinking-and-how-the-mists-of-creativity-and-progress-can-become-a-prison-of-illusion","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
