I just finished your book and wanted to say WOW! I have been wanting a book like this for so long. I find myself often talking with friends about the ideas and concepts you include here, but with much less specificity…for instance, the factors that shape our current reality and the facts surrounding our adolescent society. Great points you are making here. And all the detail you present in the chapter on the Power of Consciousness…the breadth of the research you include here (as well as in the entire book) is powerful. I also love the quotes you’ve used…all are so salient and to the point. And, by the end, I wanted to stand up and cheer at the ultimate message of the book. We CAN change this, we know how, and we begin where we are standing (as an indigenous leader once said).
I was very touched that you gifted me with the book, and I am delighted to have read it so that I can share it with others. It is revolutionary. No accident that you reference Thomas Paine’s Common Sense here. This book could be a 21st century version of that.
