Abstract

Proposes a general structure for a different underlying conceptualization of the world that is particularly well suited to language understanding. It consists of a set of core theories of a very abstract character. Discusses some of the most important of these, and in particular, core theories that explicate the concepts of systems and the figure ground relation, scales, change, causality, and goal directed behaviour
