Anthony N. Judge is the I.U.A general secretary l'U.I.A., Bruxelles (International union of associations)and the author notably of a powerful work about polyhedrons and transdisciplinarity.

"This explorations starts from the urgent need to come to a global and and comprehensible view of the diversity of disciplinary prospects required by the world crisis... The basic question is how to go out from the linear quality of inter-disciplinary thoughts ? Is there not here a metaphoric language hidden in the use of geometrical terms in the development of arguments: points, line, center, etc.? In that case, do we run the risk of being tricked by metaphores without making the most of richer metaphores in the same series : surface, volume, polyhedrons ? (...)
One of the merits of this approach is to demonstrate that contradictions and correspondences between conceptually "discontinuous" concerns could find a stable reconciliation only in a three-dimensional construction... That are "useful" links which vouch for global stability."
