Beyond Dichotomy.
Welcome to Love & Philosophy, where we’re highlighting the patterns that connect across science, technology and philosophy, holding what might seem irreconcilable, all the while focusing on an expansive approach to life and mind that explores the connection of loving and knowing, where love is not quite what any of us thinks it is. This is way-making beyond the usual either/or bounds. New partnerships, ideas and collaboration are welcome. Please sign up for the newsletter here.
Andrea has signed a contract for a book called ‘Holding Paradox: the navigational approach to mind and consciousness’ to be published early 2026. For pre-order information, please sign up for the newsletter.

The Embrace of Contradiction.
A Light Little Guide for the Times (44 pages)
This is Book One of the Embracing Paradox pamphlet series published by Making Ways. It’s about the ability to hold seemingly contradictory ideas in mind at once, while maintaining motivation and meaning in troubled times.
As F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function." This book is a step in that direction.
