{"product_id":"the-story-of-the-noosphere-9781626985940","title":"The Story of the Noosphere","description":"The Story of the Noosphere is the latest edition of Brian Thomas Swimme's cosmological work. Together with philosopher Monica DeRaspe-Bolles, Swimme explores heredity, tools, reflective consciousness, communication, population, trade, cerebralization, and convergence across four eras of human history. Based on contemporary science and empirical data, the book challenges readers to move past Modernity's overemphasis on rationality and embrace the dynamism of imagination and reflection, into the noospheric era--the unification of humanity. The book has an accompanying YouTube series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Orbis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781626985940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Brian Thomas Swimme, Monica Deraspe-Bolles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44589938180277,"sku":"9781626985940","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_89f2f53f-6a72-4f01-bbd3-efdc012d4cba.jpg?v=1724734217","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-story-of-the-noosphere-9781626985940","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
