Metaphor as a Way of Thought

This audiobook presents metaphor not merely as a stylistic device but as the fundamental mechanism of human cognition, shaping our understanding across science, poetry, and daily life. It explores how metaphors serve as the mind’s primary technology for compressing complexity into meaningful forms and argues that they form the very fabric of thought, logic, and conceptual categories. Engaging with philosophical debates and insights from various disciplines, it offers a comprehensive view of how metaphors influence perception, reality, and our collective worldview, highlighting their ethical and creative importance in shaping the world around us.
