TURNING CRISES INTO WISDOM

Evolutionary biologist Elisabet Sahtouris blends biology, philosophy and spirituality into an intoxicating mix that will touch the very nucleus of your cells. Offering a multitude of reasons to remain hopeful despite dire predictions for our environment, Sahtouris is confident we can turn things around—and quickly—because "life is too intelligent to proceed by accident." She cites recent evidence that "DNA reorganizes itself intelligently under stress with remarkable speed." In other words, "There’s never a time for greater creativity than during crisis." Sahtouris shows you how to uncover the four and one-half billion years of biological wisdom deep inside us all.
