ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This second volume of the studies from our second International Congress of PhenomenologylPhilosophy of Life and the Science of Life is essentially a thematic continuation of the first. However, it stands on its own in that it presents the further phases of the origination of the sense of life as self-prompted and as instituting autonomous spheres of the specifically human life.
Held at the Politechnical University in Gdansk, Poland, the Congress benefitted from the support and collaboration of the Organization Committee, formed at the Department of Administration and Economics by professors Dr. hab. Adam Pawlak, Boleslaw Garback, Franciszek Blawat and led by the President, Dr. hab. Piotr Dominiak (Dean) and the Secretary General, Dr. Mieczyslaw Migon. To all of them, and particularly to Dr. hab. Alexander Kolodziejczyk, the Rector of the Politechnical University who accepted the honorary presidency of the Congress, I want to express on behalf of the Institute our warmest thanks. The indefatigable dedication of Dr. Migon, who attended to even the smallest details to make this venture a success, is particularly appreciated.
And what a success it was! Its echo still resounds around the world through our old and new collaborators who convened in Gdansk to discuss, debate, and forward these pioneering programs of ours to all parts of the globe. Naturally, they deserve our highest gratitude.
We thank all those who contributed to our comfort during the conference, including the University's authorities, the M.E.N.S.A. students and their dormitories, and the Polish soft drink company NATA, who treated us to their delicious products.
Finally, let me express, as usual, my thanks to Isabelle Houthakker and Robert S. Wise for their expert copy-editing, as well as to my assistants Jeff Hurlburt and Louis T. Houthakker for their dedicated help in organizing this volume.
