Global Brain
The Evolution of Mass Mind from the Big Bang to the 21st Century
Book • 2000
In 'Global Brain,' Howard Bloom presents a bold and interdisciplinary view of evolution, arguing that the development of civilization and the internet has led to the creation of a global brain.
This concept suggests that plants, animals, and humans have evolved together as components of a worldwide learning machine.
Bloom's theory spans from the earliest bacterial ancestors to modern human societies, highlighting the interconnectedness and collective intelligence that have driven evolutionary progress.
The book draws on twenty years of research and integrates insights from biology, neurology, sociology, and psychology to challenge readers' understanding of their place in the universe and the nature of reality itself.
