The Global Brain Awakens: Our Next Evolutionary Leap

A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.The spine remains undamaged. At this unprecedented moment in history, when escalating crises threaten al l life on earth, internationally renowned physicist-futurist Peter Russell weaves together the physical and social sciences, modern technology and anc ient mysticism to demonstrate that the possibility of global illumination i s now as real-and as imminent-as the threat of mass annihilation. In this updated edition of The Global Brain Awakens, Russell details an ext raordinary new vision of humanity's potential as a fully conscious super or ganism in an awakening universe. Presenting evidence that the earth itself is a living being and every person upon it a cell in the planetary nervous system, Russell describes how breakthroughs in telecommunications and compu ter networks are rapidly linking the human species into an embryonic global brain. At the same time, the human potential movement is growing faster than any o ther segment of society, and influencing every aspect of the culture-includ ing business, politics and medicine. Russell shows how the convergence of t hese powerful trends is creating the required conditions for an evolutionar y shift in consciousness from egocentrism to geo-centrism. First published in 1983 as The Global Brain and translated into ten languages, Russell's seminal work won acclaim from forward thinkers all over the world. Regarded by many as years ahead of its time, its original predictions about the impact of computer networks and changing social values were quickly fulfilled.
