The New Map of Cosmos and Consciousness</i>, is the product of a half century of deep contemplation and cutting-edge scholarship. Laszlo, a renowned systems scientist and integral theorist, presents his concept of the "deep dimension" of reality--one where everything is connected in a seamless, irreducible whole. <p/>By dissolving the boundaries between the study of natural science, the mind, and spirituality, Laszlo makes the case for a realm beyond spacetime, a place he calls the Akashic Holofield. This primordial ground of the cosmos holds all memory and thought in the universe, creating an interconnected and harmonious complex of systems that facilitates unlimited communication and evolution of consciousness among all beings. <p/><i>What Is Reality?</i> is enriched by insightful commentary from seventeen illustrious thinkers, scientists, and spiritual leaders. With a foreword from best-selling author Deepak Chopra and an introduction from Stanislav Grof, a leading psychiatrist and innovator in the field of transpersonal psychology, <i>What Is Reality?</i> is a groundbreaking look into the paradoxes that have confound modern scientists.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Is there a spiritual dimension to our lives? Is there purpose behind the creation of the universe, beyond space and time? Laszlo's map of reality challenges the materialistic view, pushing mainstream science to explore beyond its existing boundaries. We should be grateful to Ervin Laszlo, one of the great thinkers of our time, for such a fascinating, thought provoking and inspirational book. <p/>Jane Goodall PhD, DBE<br>Founder the Jane Goodall Institute, UN Messenger of Peace <p/>There is a growing realization that our view of the world and the nature of consciousness is not merely a matter of personal philosophy, but is also a critical factor in our survival as a species. Our age has suffered greatly from the deadening effects of the grim ideology of materialism. In contrast, the resplendent vision of the new map of teality offers a new dawn of hope, meaning, direction and purpose. <p/>Larry Dossey, MD<br>Author of <i>One Mind: How Our Individual Mind is Part of a Greater Consciousness</i> <p/>This book will be read by this and future generations with awe. It is the equivalent of a twenty-first century Copernican Revolution, setting the stage for a convergence in mind and in reality of all facets of the Cosmos and the Biosphere we Homo sapiens call home. A work of sublime synthesis and feeling; articulated with many life-times of wisdom. <p/>Michael Charles Tobias<br>President, Dancing Star Foundation <p/>Laszlo's new map of reality provides real hope for the planet at a time of imminent crisis and encourages all of us to wake up to reality in order to play our part in this new era of shared consciousness. Dr Laszlo's insights offer us a new way of thinking about our place in the universe and a new multi-dimensional approach to the way we view science and the search for truth. This book provides a blueprint for all readers to re-discover the potential of the human mind to solve problems and invites us to join together on an evolutionary journey in order to live "as if everything is a miracle. . <p/>Mirela Sula<br>Chief Editor, <i>Global Woman Magazine</i> <p/>Ervin Laszlo, preeminent philosopher of our time, has pioneered in his many books and activism a new path for humanity beyond our current crises of limited perception and understanding. As an inspired educator and political activist, he has guided the lives of millions, including myself, to become active agents of ethical change beyond reductionism, materialism, GDP-fetishism, mindless consumerism and narrow-minded sectarianism. This book does indeed succeed in providing a new map of reality, for millions of aspiring global citizens to see beyond today's conflicts, ideological and religious factions, grounding our spiritual and instinctive vision of wholeness, the inseparable oneness of our human family with all life on this planet. <p/>Hazel Henderson<br>President, Ethical Markets Media, author of <i>Building a Win-Win World; Paradigms in Progress</i> <p/>In his compelling latest book, <i>What Is Reality?</i>, Dr. Ervin Laszlo ... offers a cogent and cohesive framework from which emerges, with justifiable confidence, an enlarged empirically-driven comprehension about the nature of reality. His stimulating forward-looking analysis provides invaluable insights into the greatest questions of human existence. His reasoning is well-positioned on the frontier of breakthrough knowledge, which predictably may ultimately transform science itself as it reluctantly parts company with the last remaining vestiges of the embattled materialist model of creation. For lay persons probing life's really big questions, this book is highly recommended reading. For mainstream scientists looking for a sound basis to adopt a post-materialist view of reality, look no further than the brilliantly crafted arguments Dr. Laszlo offers in this gem of a book. <p/>Raymond A.
