Volume 5: Three in One (November 2025) Call for PapersAfter a gap of a few years, in November 2025 we are already assembling articles for a new edition of the Holistic Science Journal called Three in One to which we invite your written contributions. A new challenge is to present diversity within unity in a way that must go beyond any one institution or set of beliefs. This 'Three in One' journal issue requests responses and articles typifying the language of wholeness expressed in many forms through mathematics and mythology. We value work and ideas that practically respond to the current challenges from an ancient or modern perspective beyond the black and white causality of specialist analysis. Submissions or inquiries can be sent to Philip Franses and Trevor Griffiths. Author guidelines can be read here https://holisticsciencejournal.co.uk/authorhsj.html Read more here |
Holistic Science JournalHolistic Science Journal engages a systematic study (based on Goethe's work), into the holistic nature of seeing, participation and action. It balances a reductionist focus on parts with a more heart-based sensitivity to fulfilling the natural potential of dynamical wholes, such as in our relationship with colour, a plant or the landscape.--- The question of the relation of the whole and the part is a puzzle that has engaged many people from the Greeks, to indegenous cultures, to physics and mathematics today. The relation is paradoxical, because on the one hand, the parts derive their sense from the whole but on the other hand, the whole comes from the parts. Holistic Science seeks through the imaganation to follow the freedom of whole and part to find the pattern of its everyday manifestations in the world. Holistic Science also asks what is the right educational form for this inquiry where participation creates the whole that lives through the parts. Holistic Science is about developing practises and skills that directly through languages in the manner of old apprenticeships enters into the dynamic of wholeness to navigate a living world.
