Through a paradox Lens is an exploration of paradoxical thinking based on human sensemaking and practical application. It introduces and describes a new theory of paradox called The Association and Unity Theory of Paradox and the practical application tools of the Paradoxical Awareness Model and the Paradoxical Inquiry Problem-Solving Method. These tools and models improve sensemaking and decision making for individuals and groups in a bias free methodology that focuses on What Is, Intention, and Awareness and Application.
