The "razor's edge" is a term used by Maturana and
Varela in "The Tree of Knowledge" to describe the
balance required to think and act in a world that
cannot be completely objective and yet at the
same time is not thoroughly without substance or
order. To exist on the "razor's edge" is to live
in an understanding that both extremes are
nothing more than interpretations that we make,
and to be effective in the world you must be a
master at managing the middle ground.
This interpretation has led us to explore new thinking that we have published here in a variety of articles on various topics, to provoke others to recognize different possibilities in diverse areas of business, life, and the world, where we observe that the traditional interpretations are breaking down and causing people to suffer.
