Why read it?

1 author picked New World New Mind as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Why this book is recommended is that it suggests the human brain is not suited for detecting many of the gradually escalating world dangers, such as overpopulation and world chaos that threaten our very existence as humans.

From Andy and Reena's list on how to move to a new consciousness and new earth.
