Reading The Visible and the Invisible | Alexandria
Read The Visible and the Invisible by Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Probing consciousness itself, Merleau-Ponty's masterwork reveals how our bodies shape reality before thought begins. By showing perception isn't passive but a creative dance between self and world, he overturns centuries of mind-body dualism. His radical insight? Even science relies on the raw ingredients of lived experience.
