Theory of Problem-Solution Dualities and Polarities

This book is concerned with the development of the understanding of the relational structures of information, knowledge, decision-choice processes of problems and solutions in the theory and practice regarding diversity and unity principles of knowing, science, non-science, and information-knowledge systems through dualistic-polar conditions of variety existence and nonexistence. It is a continuation of the sequence of my epistemic works on the theories on fuzzy rationality, info-statics, info-dynamics, entropy, and their relational connectivity to information, language, knowing, knowledge, cognitive practices relative to variety identification-problem-solution dualities, variety transformation-problem-solution dualities, and variety certainty-uncertainty principle in all areas of knowing and human actions regarding general social transformations. It is also an economic-theoretic approach in understanding the diversity and unity of knowing and science through neuro-decision-choice actions over the space of problem-solution dualities and polarities. The problem-solution dualities are argued to connect all areas of knowing including science and non-science, social science, and non-social-science into unity with diversities under neuro-decision-choice actions to support human existence and nonexistence over the space of static-dynamic dualities. The concepts of diversity and unity are defined and explicated to connect to the tactics and strategies of decision-choice actions over the space of problem-solution dualities. The concepts of problem and solution are defined and explicated not in the space of absoluteness but rather in the space of relativity based on real cost-benefit conditions which are shown to be connected to the general parent-offspring infinite process, where every solution generates new problem(s) which then generates a search for new solutions within the space of minimum-maximum dualities in the decision-choice space under the principle of non-satiation over the space of preference-non-preference dualities with analytical tools drawn from the fuzzy paradigm of thought which connects the conditions of the principle of opposites to the conditions of neuro-decision-choice actions in the zone of variety identifications and transformations.The Monograph would be useful to all areas of Research, Learning and Teaching at Advanced Stages of Knowing and Knowledge Production.
