Revolutions are generally thought of as large-scale, bloody upheavals involving whole countries and societies. But there are quieter revolutions that begin in the individual mind and create the kind of change that may be even more significant. By deliberately changing their internal image of reality, people are transforming the world. Right now we are living through one of the most fundamental shifts in history -- a change in the actual belief structure of Western industrial society.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2024While much of Willis Harman's fascinating book was "above my pay-grade," it contains enough golden nuggets of wisdom and basic science to teach, inspire and encourage all of us now living in a world that seems committed to destroying itself to stop worrying and start envisioning a world that works for everyone. Dr. Harman explains how science and religion have come together. The essence of how this works is found on Page 30, the Three Metaphysical Perspectives, or the evolution of matter giving rise to mind, to matter plus mind, and finally mind giving rise to matter. What I discern this to mean is what we all hear more and more of today about "thoughts become things," and "change your thinking, change your life," and "if you can dream it you can do it." I myself have found this to be true because I also love this quote: "Shoot for the moon; even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." We DO create our own reality. Try it and you will see it's true. If you think you can, you can!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2010This is my second 'global mind change' book, and reading 'the promise of the 21st century' resembled Global Mind Change: The New Age Revolution in the Way We Think. I'm not sure if '21st Century' is an expanded edition of 'New Age Revolution,' as they share core concepts. Familiar with the concepts from the first book, I understood them better after reading. The clarity and readability of this work is higher than 'New Age Revolution.'
Global Mind Change is the concept the post-industrial revolution era has opened a huge increase in productivity to the point where the essentials of life are easily provided by society. Instead caring for the Earth, the primary elite are exploitative corporations who sacrifice long term planetary health for a short term profit. The reason for this is linked to a reductionist world view, where numbers and classifications are more important than consciousness and human beings. The Why's of the reductionist worldview (M1) are examined in the context of fundamental assumptions behind science and the purpose of science. Global Mind change seeks to redefine fundamental assumptions, or provide a fresh look at them, for a better future.
It's not a hippy book. The biggest thing I 'got' this time was the levels of science -- Physical Science, Life Sciences, Human Sciences, and Spiritual Sciences. The modern westernized science does not value consciousness or emotions (human or spiritual sciences), meaning reductionist 'put a monetary value on everything' trumps future generations, long-term survival, and intangible values. The books says 'stop and look at nonsensical behavior before you ruin the Earth.' Those fundamental assumptions include profiteering ethics fighting/overwhelming good science, and that a consumption based throw-away society is inherently superior to a 'make things which last' creative society. What struck me as odd is the author is unaware of the 'Tragedy of the Commons' concept, which greatly helps/compliments their thesis.
Perennial Wisdom (i.e. overwhelming empirical evidence regarding human and spiritual sciences which modern science ignores) is examined and not dismissed. Global Mind Change uses a bottom-up approach in examining the flawed methodology of the current M1 (matter giving rise to mind) metaphysics underlying Western science and proposes a shift to M3 (Transcendental Monism, mind giving rise to matter). I did not agree with this conclusion, and I do not understand why the author is not promoting an M2 model (Dualism, matter plus mind).
The book does a wonderful job of analyzing the history of M1, including covering the light wave vs. light particle debate and how Europeans science leaders trashed their meteor specimens in the 1700's because they decided 'space rocks' were like angels and elves. My point is, the author takes a deliberate stand that a dual approach is best for understanding the world. The light-as-particle model is valid, but so is the light-as-wave model, and the end result is a complimentary modeling with greater understanding. While the author covers the flaws in M1, they ignore the flaws in M3 (to find those flaws examine historical India or even a contemporary Islamic theocracy).
While I appreciated the well constructed analysis, I found it fights for the wrong conclusion (M3 vs M2). It does not distinguish 'a move towards M3' and M3 itself. Overall, an enjoyable, thinking book I did not entirely agree with.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2019This book is a MUST READ book. The credentials of Dr. Harmon indicates his ability to know what he's talking about. (I even attended one of his weekend workshops in California in the 1990s and it was one of the most valuable experiences I've ever had in getting the truth of what's on the horizon!) If I'd only had only ten books to read in my lifetime, this one would have been one of them!

- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2011I just finished reading this really good book by Willis Harman.
For everyone who is working with sustainability and is trying out new, deep, participative forms of leadership in order to create together meaningful future scenarios, this book is a must. Also recommended for those fascinated by the emergence of the 'new' scientific paradigm (from Einstein and Bohr, onwards) with all the implications about the role of consciousness in the new science.
Willis Harman was an authentic futurist, in fact in his pages originally written in 1985 he hits the heart of the matter in so many key points of today's civilization: the link between economic growth and environmental degradation, the perception of nature as a mere 'resource', the eroding sense of meaning that today's societies are facing despite an apparent wealth of scientific knowledge. Lastly, it gives many good insights in the type of leadership that was emerging in the early 80ies (still very relevant today).

Desmond BerghoferReviewed in Canada on July 3, 20225.0 out of 5 stars Global Mind Change is not only possible but essential
Willis Harman was a giant of intellectual thought in the 20th century about prospects for humanity. Forty years after it was written "Global Mind Change" still stands as one of our best guides of how we must reshape human thought and action in the 21st century if we are to survive the flaws in our dominant thinking and practice in industrialized society.
