In a sense, this book is a long riff on the number 3. More accurately, it's a meditation on three distinct but overlapping ways of structuring-or deconstructing-- our world. I call these three ways the centric, paracentric, and acentric modes. These modes, in turn, reflect the three-fold structure of our brains. Projections of these brain structures shape our art, music, literature, philosophy, and religion.
