THE SECRET OF GENIALITY (IV)
THE SECRET OF GENIALITY (IV)

Summary/Abstract: We continue to publish, in a series, the book THE SECRET OF GENIALITY (Yerevan, Armenia,Noyan Tapan Printing House, 2002) by our colleague Robert Djidjian, not only because we all must know the philosophical research and creation (in our domain of epistemology and philosophy of science and technology) from a wider geographic area than that provided by the established fashion in virtue of both extra-scientific reasons and a yet obsolete manner to communicate and value the research; but also because the book as such is living, challenging and very instructive.The title of the book is suggestive enough to make us to focus on an old problem: the dialectic of the insight, of the discovery –its psychology moving between flashes of intuitions and knowledge stored in memory– and its logic of composition of knowledge from hypotheses to their demonstration and verification. The realm of science is most conducive to the understanding of this dialectic and the constitution of the ideas which are theproofs of what is the most certain for humans: the “world 3”, as Popper called the kingdom of human results of their intellection, and though transient and perishable in both their uniqueness and cosmic fate, the only certain proof of the reason to be of homo sapiens in the frame of multiversal existence. Therefore, the power to create is the secret of the human geniality, and how to create science is a main part of this secret.
