Changes of Mind by Jenny Wade
An original theory of the development of consciousness that brings together research from neurology, new-paradigm studies, psychology, and mysticism. Changes of Mind unites literature from the new physics, brain research, developmental psychology, and mysticism to produce the first comprehensive theory of individual human consciousness. Assuming a new paradigm reality, the author opens and extends the field of developmental psychology in ways that structure, destructure, and then restructure the subjective experience of time, space, subject, and object. Wade's theory concerns the development of consciousness per se-not merely its derivatives, such as cognition, social development, and affect-and its neurological bases, something no other developmental theory has taken into account. Using data from a wide range of empirical studies and neurological research, Wade shows that awareness considerably predates birth-probably even conception-and lasts after death, supporting the idea that the self exists outside the boundaries of linear time and a physical body. This book represents a major leap forward in psychological theory and a groundbreaking approach to human perception and being in the world.Jenny Wade is a lecturer, teacher, and researcher specializing in noetics and developmental psychology who holds a Ph.D. in Human Development from the Fielding Institute. A self-employed management consultant, her theory and consulting practice are the result of extensive research and over twenty years' experience working with Fortune 500 companies, multinationals, and smaller businesses in a wide range of industries around the world.
