Why read it?
1 author picked A Brief History of Everything as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Ken Wilber is a prolific philosopher and writer. His many books cover a wide range of subjects, from psychology to mysticism. I studied with him twenty years ago after the publication of this book. I was enlightened by his holistic theory, which connects four domains of life organized by objective/subjective and individual/collective considerations.
This framework opened my eyes and transformed my work with individuals and groups. This book eventually led to a worldwide program called integral thinking. It is deep, thought-provoking, and enlightening.
From Chuck's list on a more alive, self-aware, and fulfilling life.
