Synopsis
An institute dedicated to research on what it calls “the new paradigm” should make clear what it means by this term, and how it can be researched. This handbook responds to this challenge.The Handbook of New Paradigm Research outlines in its first part the scheme that is the core of the new paradigm. This scheme responds to questions such as who we are, what the fundamental nature of the world is, and to where we are headed in these critical times. The second part elaborates on the relevance of the scheme to fields and disciplines such as ecology, medicine and healing, education, politics and economics, and business.The publication of this handbook is an invitation to its readers to collaborate with The Laszlo Institute of New Paradigm Research to elaborate on the new paradigm, and explore its application to the fields and questions that shape our life and our future.
