From the Author

Humans have innate capacities, beyond social conditioning, to develop a holistic awareness of their relationship with the world. Activating these capacities starts with seeing the connections between human consciousness and the physical world. This foundational concept is now reentering the mainstream of Western culture. To impact society, this new understanding must penetrate business, eduation, government, and other core institutions. . . If the future is to become more hospitable, we must rediscover and more effectively apply the human wisdom that is in our nature.
