We've all heard of people who've experienced a seemingly miraculous recovery from illness, but can the same thing happen for our whole world? According to pioneering biologist Bruce H. Lipton, it's not only possible, but it is already happening. In collaboration with political philosopher Steve Bhaerman, Dr Lipton invites readers to explore a startling re-examination of evolution, the role of DNA, the relationship between mind and matter, and how our beliefs about nature shape us. As Dr Lipton and Steve Bhaerman explain, by changing our beliefs, we can trigger the spontaneous evolution of our species to create a brighter future.

The four Myth-Perceptions of the Apocalypse

The institutionalised insanity that society created by supporting the obsolete and dysfunctional beliefs defined as the Four Myth-Perceptions of the Apocalypse:

• Only Matter Matters
• Survival of the Fittest
• It's in Your Genes
• Evolution Is Random

Although each belief seemed logical at one time, new science reveals that none is true. These failed paradigms unconsciously hold in place the current dysfunctions that threaten our survival.

Excerpts

We are fortunate, indeed, that the Internet, a rapid, almost instantaneous form of grassroots worldwide communication, now exists. This means that social mutations that work in one place can be rapidly disseminated across the planet. The power inherent in the shared awareness is unparalleled in human history. In light of the fact that knowledge is power, humanity is now endowed with enough power to nurture and heal our planet and our selves in a predictable way.

	While many shun technology, we see it is an inherent and fundamental element of evolution. Consider the fact that cells, in creating the human body, developed many technologies that are far more sophisticated than those yet derived from modern science.

	We are here use our evolved awareness to support environmental harmony.

	Perhaps that evolutionary directive - accumulating awareness through expanding community - offers a clear direction for our currently evolving civilisation.
