Summary

AS THE META-CRISIS DEEPENS, THE FATE OF CIVILIZATION AND HUMANITY HANGS IN THE BALANCE.

First Principles and First Values is the tip of the spear in the fight for a humane future. Establishing frameworks for a new school of thought called CosmoErotic Humanism, the book is built around forty-two propositions that provide new source code for the future of planetary culture.

Like Europe in the early Renaissance, humanity is in a time between worlds, at a time between stories. First Principles and First Values contains blueprints for the bridge needed to cross from this world to the next.

Hope, wisdom and a way forward

Fear and worry for humanity make way for an incredible hopeful and powerful vision on how we can actually move forward together. The new story for humanity proposed in this book is unlike anything I’ve ever read. This is the most deep, true, fulfilling compass to embrace an entirely new future. With a rare combination of science and mysticism we are guided on a path through existential risk, as if stepping on the Ark of Noah itself. This book left me with a sense of bliss while at the same time inspired to purposeful action. I must read this several times to really understand the wholeness of the gifts that are being offered. Thank you!

A paradigm shifting dive

The compelling propositions put forward in this groundreaking book demand to be read. They cast value in a whole new light. One that has the potential to really address what is at the core of the meta-crisis. I am left filled with a growing sense of hope for the future and a desire to learn more.
