Author: Cottrell, Barry

Ancient people lived with a profound sense of belonging to the natural world. Then something forced the human mind into an evolutionary contraction of consciousness and dislocation from Earth's embrace, leading to the embryonic stirrings of intellect and modern individualism. Today, a collective denial of soul and spirit has led to planetary degradation and crisis. In lyrical channeled prose, Cottrell provides a refeshingly new account of how it happened, then charts a path toward a new Earth awareness and a restored sense of "home." 208 pp.
