À propos de ce contenu audio

As our civilization careens towards a precipice of climate breakdown, ecological destruction and gaping inequality, people are losing their existential moorings. Our dominant worldview of disconnection, which tells us we are split between mind and body, separate from each other and at odds with the natural world, has passed its expiration date.

Yet another world is possible.

Award-winning author Jeremy Lent investigates humanity's age-old questions - who am I? why am I? how should I live? - from a fresh perspective, weaving together findings from modern systems thinking, evolutionary biology and cognitive neuroscience with insights from Buddhism, Taoism and Indigenous wisdom.

The result is a breath-taking accomplishment: a rich, coherent worldview based on a deep recognition of connectedness within ourselves, between each other and with the entire natural world.

Commentaires

"The Web of Meaning is both a profound personal meditation on human existence and a tour de force weaving together of historic and contemporary world-wide secular and spiritual thought on the deepest question of all: why are we here?" (Gabor Maté MD, author of In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction)

"We need, now more than ever, to figure out how to make all kinds of connections. This book can help - and therefore it can help with a lot of the urgent tasks we face." (Bill McKibben, author of Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?)

The message is good but unfortunately there is a lot too much metaphysical shenanigans. Also the author kind of tried to talk about too much and as a result we feel he's talking about nothing... It's not well written either. With that said there is interesting things and chapters throughout. I especially liked the couple of first chapters. I wouldn't recommend this book tho. Keep this up Jeremy.

I can't recommend this book.
