Customer Reviews

Fascinating!!

This book contains a lot of fascinating and leading-edge ideas from an array of amazing individuals. Because it's a series of interviews, it's easy to pick up and put down and read over again. I've given it to several (smart) friends over the years, and it's inspired me to read other works by and about some of the very interesting people and ideas discussed here... in a world that often seems awash with stupidity and brutality, this book offers the hope intelligence might actually still be evolving within our species.

Expose Yourself to a Dizzying Array of Minds - Read It!

This book is a wonderful introduction to the thoughts and philosophies of some of today's most radical thinkers. The interview format works well, as it allows for spontaneous insights from the interviewees. The subjects range from poets to scientists to cultural commentators (ie Terence McKenna), and the authors do a notably good job of revealing some common themes between all of their philosophies. If you want to know where the world is heading, read this book!
