In The Global Brain Peter Russell shows that humanity has reached a crossroads in its evolutionary path. The Internet is linking humanity into one, worldwide community - a "global brain". This, combined with a rapidly growing spiritual awakening, is creating a collective consciousness that is humanity's only hope of saving itself from itself. However, Russell warns if we continue on our current path of greed and destruction, humanity will become a planetary cancer.

Selling more than 100,000 copies and translated into ten languages, his seminal work, The Global Brain, won acclaim from forward thinkers worldwide. It was regarded by many as years ahead of its time, and its original predictions about the impact of computer networks and changing social values are now being realized.

we are one with our mother earth in spuite of thinking we arenot. different nations and lots of other boundaries maybe lead us to believe we are not one with the earth. i hope we can stay on thios nice planet and don't need to destroy it and that we will eventually understand the self-regulating mechanism which led to us and which is supposedly being altered in the last decades...
