Here is the epic adventure of the rise and unfolding of human
consciousness from its earliest days millennia ago, on through the first
civilizations and down to contemporary times. The mythic Mitochondrial
DNA, "mother of humanity," of 10,000 generations ago is used to
personalize this journey for readers, a journey seen to be an integral
part of each of us. This includes not only her shared African gene pool
but also the neuro-biologically interwoven evolutionary impulse. How
different personalities deal with this intelligent and luminous current
is the primary thrust of this groundbreaking book that readers will find
of extraordinary value in the exploration of human consciousness. Edward
Bruce Bynum, PhD, is a clinical psychologist, family therapist, and

Unconscious and Families and the Interpretation of Dreams. He has
