The Book of Life concerns itself with Ancient Taoism, which the author asserts, is in essence a Science and Art of Human Development. The human body is not so much a physical and mechanistic object, as modern science until recently has contended, but it is a dynamic energy system in which we can circulate Chi or the Life Force. There are ten techniques given for self-transformation which focus upon the cultivation of Chi or the Life Force and even the expansion of human consciousness. After this, the author cogently argues that if we can slowly and reliably turn the wheel of self-transformation, then we can being to turn the wheel of profound political/social change in the 21st century. He then outlines his general plan for combining modern science and ancient wisdom, so these things can be accomplished, and in essence, having a Revolution of the Human Spirit.
