In the book 250 essays located in alphabetical order. In each of them - thoughts and associations, born in different words: from apricot - to apple, from astrophysics - to esotericism. Some essays are entertaining, others are cognitive, others are philosophical, but all together are addressed to the issues of the meaning of life, world order, religion and atheism, and public way.
This book is a visual aid for comprehending its own picture of the world and worldview. The author demonstrates the method of reflection on the world around us, about history and modernity, about philosophy, politics, religion, culture. The associative approach allows you to see and realize your own picture of the world and the worldview arsenal.
In the minds of each there are elements of different worldviews: scientific, religious, mythological. We are not trained in how to use them, we do not know when we should proceed from the scientific, and when from a religious worldview. Should only be used by one of them, rejecting the rest, as erroneous? Are worldviews flexible tools, or are it unchanging bases? Does our picture of the world depend on the momentary state, and what should it be? Our pictures of the world are mosaic. Communicating, we use the words, believing that we understand them the same, but the words have both generally accepted meanings-they are given in dictionaries and meanings-but everyone has their own, including as emotionally-shaped complexes.
The book is addressed to both those who first thought “about the meaning of life”, and those who have long been seriously immersed in philosophical thoughts
