Jacob Needleman has initiated a significant shift in the discourse surrounding science and religion, prompting a more mature exploration of consciousness transformation. This work serves as a crucial stop for those delving into these themes, encouraging thoughtful reflection and potential reevaluation of their paths. Esteemed voices like Theodore Roszak and Fritjof Capra endorse the book, highlighting its relevance to our cultural landscape. Needleman posits that Western science has long operated under the misconception that understanding the universe can occur independently of self-understanding. He emphasizes the importance of connecting the laws of nature with our inner nature, warning against superficial approaches to spirituality. His focus is not on the convergence of science and spirituality but rather on their separation, asserting that true unity arises from recognizing and understanding real divisions. This awareness can foster the harmony that humanity has struggled to achieve. Needleman, a philosophy professor at San Francisco State University, has authored numerous works and contributes to various fields, including psychology and ethics. His insights have also been showcased on Bill Moyers's PBS series, A World of Ideas.
