Description: A collective story of all humankind. This book explores questions such as: Where did we come from?; What is our destiny as a species?; Why the miracle of consciousness, self-awareness and the agony and ecstasy of existence?; and, Why do we have a sense of order, morality, purpose, and even intimations of the divine?
Synopsis: "How Humanity Came into Being" is our story - the collective story of all humankind. Life, from its earliest days, is a constant exploration of our physical, emotional, mental and ultimately spiritual relationship with the world. It is no wonder, then, that we ponder the perennial questions: Where did we come from?; What is our destiny as a species?; Why the miracle of consciousness, self-awareness and the agony and ecstasy of existence?; and, Why do we have a sense of order, morality, purpose, and even intimations of the divine? This unique and remarkably readable book explores such questions of existence. The authors present a fascinating journey through our anthropological history, including art and science, linguistic, spiritual and other cultural innovations; in short, all things that make us a unique species. Drawing on the latest research and ideas, they go on to show that we are poised at an evolutionary turning point as human beings move towards a collective awakening. For anyone interested in human consciousness, this book is an important signpost, indicating the way forward.
