Our modern patterns of thinking and learning are all based on observing
a world of 'things', which we think of as separate building blocks. This
worldview allows us to count and measure objects without their having
any innate value; it provides neat definitions and a sense of control
over life. However, this approach also sets humans apart from each
other, and from nature.
In reality, in nature, everything is connected in a fluid, dynamic way.
'Separateness' is an illusion we have created -- and is fast becoming a
dangerous delusion infecting how we relate to business, politics, and
other key areas of our daily reality.
Giles Hutchins argues that the source of our current social, economic
and environmental issues springs from the misguided way we see and
construct our world. With its roots in ancient wisdom, this insightful
book sets out an accessible, easy to follow exploration of the causes of
our current crises, offering ways to rectify these issues at source and
then pointing to a way ahead.
