Mario Schipflinger: Do You Want to Update?, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

RTFM - Book 1 introduces a way of observing cognition without relying on narrative, interpretation, or personal belief.

Rather than presenting arguments or explanations, the book functions as a field manual. It invites the reader to notice how meaning, identity, and internal storytelling arise, and how they shape perception before they are recognized as mechanisms. The focus is not on changing behavior or adopting new frameworks, but on seeing what is already operating.

This book approaches cognition as a structural process rather than a psychological story. Attention is directed toward how thoughts form, how coherence is maintained, and how meaning is applied automatically. By removing interpretive pressure, the text allows these processes to become visible in real time.

RTFM Book 1 does not offer techniques, practices, or conclusions. It does not provide motivation, advice, or therapeutic guidance. Instead, it establishes a baseline of perceptual clarity that allows subsequent volumes to operate without relying on narrative explanations.

The text is intentionally minimal and non-linear. Sections can be read independently, revisited, or paused without loss of continuity. Discomfort or confusion is treated as informational rather than problematic, often indicating where habitual meaning-making is loosening.

This book is intended for readers interested in philosophy, cognition, and systems-level inquiry, but it does not assume academic background or specialized terminology. It serves as the entry point to the RTFM series, laying the groundwork for later volumes that expand into structural, architectural, and operational perspectives on cognition.

RTFM Book 1 is not a theory about the mind. It is an invitation to observe how cognition actually behaves when explanation is set aside.
