Throughout human history, thoughts, values and behaviours have been coloured by language and the prevailing view of the universe. With the advent of Quantum Mechanics, relativity, non-Euclidean geometries, non-Aristotelian logic and General Semantics, the scientific view of the world has changed dramatically from just a few decades ago. Nonetheless, human thinking is still deeply rooted in the cosmology of the middle ages. This is the book to change your way of perceiving yourself -- and the universe. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these -- and none. The book for the 21st Century, complete with exercises. Picks up where "Prometheus Rising" left off. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these -- and none.

Format:Paperback
I've been a fan of RAW for a year now, and Prometheus Rising really opened up a lot of things for me.
The last four months I've been reading dozens of books on quantum physics, the holographic model, the Vedas, and spirituality.
If you know very little about quantum physics or modern philosophy this book can really be an eye opener and a helpful guide to further investigation.
However, and this won't be popular, though the book is very well written, both amusing and intelligent, and even though Wilson really knows what he is speaking about, I did not agree whole-heartedly with all of Wilsons assertions. I should make very clear that this is a subjective and deeply personal objection, as should be obvious to any Wilson reader, and I do not have any real education to object. I still found this book very entertaining and thought-provoking. I guess it's a small and insignificant objection, and I'm sure Wilson has a better foundation for his claims, but for me it seems that a deeper reality, one that to me appears universal, really exists. (Notice the E-Primer, the exclusion of "is"! I still love Wilson and Korzybski, don't get me wrong)
I agree much more with Prometheus, in fact I had no objections. With this book I have one small objection, but that doesn't in any way lessen the impact, genius, legacy, and importance of this book in my library.
Namaste.

Format:Paperback
For people that whine and whinge, there can be no escape. We all know what it is to feel low, like there is nothing to hope for. This title offers the reader the chance to psycho-analyse thier existance, and the relationship between themselves and that which touches them, and enforce thier own positive feed-back into that existance. Not one day has gone by without me linking an example or lesson from this text, and profiting from it.
Peace of mind is only a read away.

Undeniably one of Wilsons best books, and a real eye-opener if you've not read much about human consciousness, the influence of language on our thinking, or on how the mind works.
I found the third and last part of his book to be somewhat less factual (bordering on something between realistic fiction and wishful thinking), but the first two parts easily make up for it.
I wish someone had made me read this earlier in my life - so much insight in so few pages (it's kind-of like the babylon fish :)..
