This book is an introduction to the so-called PHENOMENON OF PLAY! Every thinking being can imagine PLAY—even if there is no such concept in its language! “You may deny all abstractions: RIGHT, BEAUTY, GOD—anything serious can be denied, but not PLAY!” (Johan Huizinga)
And this is indeed more than an accurate definition—this book is an introduction to the PHENOMENON that, following Plato: “...most closely fits the place and role of man,” and also the words of Goethe: “A human being is fully a human being only when playing.”
So what you have in your hands is nothing other than a MAP. It depicts the paths to understanding the territory of skill and success, the location of the so-called creative force, as well as examples of techniques and methods that I—and other masters—open up spontaneously, with the goal of protecting one’s calling and, as a result, achieving reliable—and possibly even outstanding—results!
