This offers a challenge to our traditional view of ourselves and our place in the universe. Peter Russell puts forward the idea of the earth as a collective self-regulating living organism, and invites us to join in an exploration of humanity's potential as seen through the eyes of the planet. Through this we share with the author a vision of our evolutionary future. Drawing on the work of physicists, psychologists, philosophers and mystics, Peter Russell shows that human society may be about to make a quantum leap in evolution as significant as the emergence of life itself some three and a half billion years ago. This is a new edition with a new final chapter.
