Yes: Children, Albert Einstein, and Niels Bohr

By Len Barron

Midway through the 20th Century, Einstein wrote, "The world we have made as a result of the level of thinking we have done so far, creates problems we cannot solve at the same level of thinking at which we have created them."The rub is that we cannot go from one kind of thinking to another, it is not a linear process. First must come a change in sensibility and from that change will emerge a different kind of thinking. "We must try to recognize," said Einstein, "what in our accepted tradition is damaging to our fate and dignity and shape our lives accordingly.""Yes" is a weave of stories about people best characterized by "Yes." Whatever their age, discipline or circumstances, their words and actions express generosity, curiosity, and a deep caring for our children and their future."The purpose of education is to nurture thoughtfulness. The lesser function of thinking is to solve puzzles and problems. The essential purpose is to decide for yourself what is of genuine value in life... and then to find the courage to take your own thoughts seriously." -Albert Einstein"Len Barron is just a whisper from ninety and he, like all of us, was once a child. Unfortunately, most of us have forgotten the magic of our childhood. Not so for Len. Through a lifetime of story, song and dance and his work on Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr he is in touch with a child's sense of wonder. "Yes" is a short book. I suggest you read it slowly." -Gregory Heming Ph.D., Literary Ecologist
