Mind Before Matter Challenging the Materialist Model of Reality by Paul Devereux

Mind Before Matter Challenging the Materialist Model of Reality by Paul Devereux

Materialism is the dominant worldview in the West. But it is only one worldview, and it doesn't completely work, even, ironically, being gradually undermined by the science that gave rise to it. This anthology of essays sketches the framework for a model of reality - one based on the primacy of consciousness rather than of matter.

Co-editor and initiator of the anthology, Trish Pfeiffer, was co-chair with John Mack in the Center for Psychology and Social Change. She was also Creative Director for Superlearning, Inc. in New York City and a founder of the Marion (Foundation) Institute co-creating programs exploring frontier science and human potential. She is on the Advisory Board of the Friends of the Institute of Noetic Sciences. John E. Mack, M.D. (1929-2004) was a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and a Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer whose efforts to bridge psychiatry and spirituality were compared by The New York Times to that of fellow Harvard professor William James. Larry Dossey, M.D. is a lecturer and author of ten books on the interrelationship of consciousness, spirituality and healing. Contributors include Christopher Bache, Anne Baring, Amit Goswami, Ervin Laszlo, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Elisabet Sahtouris, Riachard Tarnas and Hank Wesselman.
