We can think with the implicit, as well as with fully-formed concepts

Eugene T Gendlin

pp. 147-161

Abstract

We can now adopt a new understanding of scientific knowledge and its role in our society. The concepts which science presents change every year. Neither today's nor next year's concepts are representations of reality. Many people mistrust science altogether and gladly adopt anything from any other source. Our best thinkers also attest to the fact that every picture, every representation, every theory and set of concepts can break down and be found false.
