How not to be a monkey in the 21st Century: A guide to who you are and how to live

5/5 ( ratings)

Life can be confusing. How do you begin to make sense of it?

This book is about perspective. When making decisions in life, we need perspective.

The perspective that this book will give you describes how you got to where you are today, more details of how humanity evolved and the shaping of our psychology, and bearing all that in mind, it’ll give some pointers for how you can move forward in a confusing world.

To understand how we got to where we are, I’ll take a look at how various aspects of the Universe evolved to produce a clever ape on a small blue-green planet in a spiral galaxy 14 billion years since the birth of the Universe.

Don’t worry – I’ve tried to keep everything brief and easily digestible.

Then once we know ‘how’ and ‘why’ we got to where we are today as an animal like no other on Planet Earth, we’ll then look at how things might go in future and play with a few ideas as to how we might actually shape that future and be active participants in creating a world we all want; whatever that is.

Is modern human industrial society some sort of weird, freaky spin-off that’ll soon die out and leave life on Earth to get on with business-as-usual? Or will humanity evolve to become Earth’s crowning glory; custodians of a beautiful planet? Or perhaps something else will happen?

The main theme of this book is that something new is happening to humanity. Could it be that the confusing and complex state of humanity could be the growing pains of the growth of an entirely new level of existence in the Universe? Something unimaginable; the Next Level of existence?
