This books deals with the social evolution of our planet seen as the living entity, Gaia, and the role knowledge creation and distribution is increasingly playing in developing Gaia's coherence.

About the Book

This book aims to support its readers in active engagement in what could be humanity's end game with “The Way” of the Universe. There is still time to re-engage consciously with the universal processes that created us. To do so we must have a perspective that enables us to see these processes not merely the forms they create. This book provides such a perspective accessible and acceptable to all. It is inclusive. It asks no one to give up what gives their life meaning be it power, religion, ethnicity, nationality, neighbourhood or parenthood. Our specie's greatest strength is its diversity if coupled with a global consciousness this is undefeatable. Achieving this is more likely, if we embed out thinking in a wider understanding of Gaia's minute part in the greater game being played out between the stars and galaxies, the Way of the Universe.

About the Author

Brian Hilton teaches International Business at Nottingham University's campus in Ningbo China. He has authored three books on globalization. He lives in China to observe and participate in the revolution in social evolution now sweeping our planet. These changes are focused on China. China is in the eye of the evolutionary storm humanity has created. In China you can observe social evolutionary processes directly. This was never before possible. Social evolution was at a pace taking observable real change beyond the lifetime of any individual. In China real change now occurs in a third of a human lifetime and it is accelerating.
