Hearts and Minds - Walter Alexander

The great scientific revolution of the last five hundred years has reached the firm conclusion that ours is a random, indifferent, and wholly impersonal cosmos.  
But this picture, Walter Alexander’s Hearts and Minds shows, has been fraying at the edges for many years. Progress in medicine, quantum physics, open-systems biology, consciousness studies, epistemology, the arts and philosophy--all have been pointing in a radically different direction.
 
Hearts and Minds tells the tale of these emerging discoveries that reveal our own self and consciousness to be fully integral to the workings of the world.
