Opis

Economist, engineer, generalist and mystic, Shamcher Bryn Beorse, reveals his comprehensive overview of the forces and influences shaping humanity in the latter half of the 20th century. Concerned with the fate of the earth environmentally, socially and politically, he offered both advice and warning, peppered with personal anecdotes. The cry of mother earth, the complexity of social issues, and the needs and desires of human beings living in this world today all combine in Beorse's bird's eye view. This expanded and all-inclusive vision of the cry of the earth is as important today as when it was written nearly 40 years ago. What seemed radical at that time is commonplace today - an awareness of the totality of the environment including ourselves as well as the development of the inner life. In Beorse's world-view there is no separation between the areas of energy, economics, employment, the individual's pursuit of happiness and his own personal life-experiences. He subtly includes the spiritual life, touching on yoga and Sufi thought and practice as necessary and meaningful tools to address our current problems - not only at a personal level, but in the areas of city life, the environment, education and the media. It was his love of this life and of this precarious human experiment that urged him to write and add his voice to the increasingly urgent call of our planet. -Planet Earth, itself, now demands what the sages and prophets shouted in vain.- Book website at planet-earth.shamcher.com
