Product Description The Creation of Flowing Forms in Water and Air
Theodor Schwenk
Translated by Olive Whicher & Johanna Weigley
More than ever before, today we need "water consciousness" and we can begin with this essential and classic book on water as the universal bearer of living, formative processes.
Beginning with simple flowing phenomena of water and air, Schwenk gradually builds up, with the help of marvelous photographs and drawings, the "letters" of an alphabet that will allow us to "read" the living meaning of water.
The spiritual, formative processes are gradually brought to light, and we come to recognize the Creative Word in the universe.
Fully illustrated.

neither science nor artSeptember 15, 2006 Greg B. Witt 5 out of 15 found this review helpful
I've got to say, I was pretty darn dissapointed with this book. I looked forward to seeing this book for a long time so it hurt especially bad when I saw that it was full of quasi-religious new-agey worthlessness and conpletely devoid of any interesting commentary of the intersections of artistic and scientific inquiry.
Water, Water, EverywhereFebruary 21, 2000 Jane Kansas(Halifax Canada) 20 out of 22 found this review helpful
It's out-of-print. No one you know has ever heard of this book. No matter: the trouble you may have in finding a copy of Sensitive Chaos will be worth it. The images will remain with you. The text will teach the old dog (you) new tricks. And years and years from now you will still recognize the spiral of water in the things you see, and you'll even feel a little more connected to the world. Beautiful book.
A beautiful and poetic view of scienceNovember 23, 1998 Thomas R. Blakeslee(Venice, CA United States) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This beautiful book remains scientifically accurate while describing in poetic and spiritual style the flowing of fluids in nature. A beautiful collection of pictures illustrates how even living things follow the rules of fluid flow as new cells flow forth in the growth process.
