In its original, worn and edge rubbed dust jacket, fraying with minor loss at spine ends; mild scratch across from panel. A remarkable text, an interpretation of the universe in terms imaginism - that is to say that Johnson envisages imagination, not reason, as the key to the mystery of life. For Johnson, reason tests, but imagination creates, and he explores and applies this concept in different scenarios, from man and other living forms to matter and data from mysticism and physical observation.
