This weighty volume is the most complete study of Dali's painted works ever published.

Наличните представи за науката - философски, социологически, исторически, психологически - ни дават само различни фасети на фрагменти от неизвестна цялост, несглобяеми в единна картина, образ на науката. Непосилно изглежда засега постигането на единен обяснителен образ, защото самият знаниево-дейностен феномен-наука е разпръснат в множество дисциплини и изтъкан от противоречия. Настоящата книга дава един възможен и ясен отговор на този проблем. Търсената кохезия е разпозната и проследена в т.нар. процесна матрица.
