been reading "Focusing", which would be a much better book if they stripped out the intro & forward to the 25th anniversary edition stuff

cuz it's, a meditation technique.

but in the forward they go on about how this is going to revolutionize therapy (any time now I guess?) & forms the basis of new social institutions that will heal our atomized society, form a whole new field of science (by which he means "introspection", I think? which is bizarre because as a psychiatrist he has to know that that was the original/ancient way we studied psychology & we stopped doing it because it was notoriously unreliable)

also he says it's not a meditation technique, because those are "content-free".which is wrong, meditatings on topics exist.

there's also some claim about science only being able to conceptualize things as machines and that it "isn't able to study itself." which is definitely also a thing that scientists do
