Neuro–Linguistic Programming: Volume I. The Study of the Structure of Subjective Experience

Начало книги

While it may be fundamentally correct to say that all knowledge is part of one field, it is fundamentally impractical to approach learning in this way. By separating biology from chemistry they later recombined and both held shared value for each other. By separating electronics from optics, new technologies and application came into being. NLP could be described as an extension of linguistics, neurology, or psychology; separations that although may in fact be ficticious in nature are in fact expedient for human learning and the development of knowledge that is practical and inpactful on our lives. These separations are based primarily on the purpose of the study of the field itself. The purpose of NLP is as discrete from linguistics as logic is to philosophy, as discrete from psychology as neurology to medicine. Although interaction of these fields yields useful results, the lack of interaction in some areas is also useful so developments in one field can aid another. The chemist, the doctor, the psychologist, the mathematician all individually better define their separate purpose and develop their skills, so when combination and interaction occur it can yield more results, be more fruitful. An ancient Greek said it quite well in the early times of western thought:
