This is fundamental. It changes everything.

I recently discovered the ideas of Vittorio Guidano, who from what I can gather was a Chilean psychologist who wrote on an approach to cognitive therapy he called "post-rationalism" (there is very little information about him or his writings in English; I have found one decently translated interview and one essay, both intended to provide an easy-to-understand summary of post-rationalism). He is someone I wish I knew about 4 months ago; the concepts of post-rationalism are really relevant to what I wanted to explore both in my thesis and in general. It maintains that logical, rational thought is only a portion of the ways humans can and do interact with the world, and there are plenty of legitimate other ways to experience the world besides through rationality (for example, emotionally). The interview is great, it talks about self-contained order, the world as one perceived by non-impartial entities, and domains in which logic isn't applicable. I'm going to continue to try to find books or anything in English, though he also makes me want to speak Spanish.
