Dream of the Earth
Book • 1988
This landmark work, first published in 1988, offers a new perspective that recasts our understanding of science, technology, politics, religion, ecology, and education.
Berry argues that our current vision of progress is misguided and has led to a disconnection from the planet.
He advocates for breaking free from the 'technological trance' and fostering mutually enhancing human-Earth relationships to heal the global biosystem.
The book draws on Western philosophy, Asian thought, Native American traditions, and contemporary physics and evolutionary biology to propose a biocentric approach to human progress.
