Book Description
Sometimes evolution gets it wrong. We’ve got one last chance to get it right. Fourteen billion years ago, it all started with a Big Bang. Today, all we hear is a faint echo. A NASA scientist discovers a blip in the echo of from the birth of time. Could it really be a message from the moment of creation—a cosmic code destined to save or destroy the world? Corporate greed has pushed the planet to the brink of ecological collapse. Something needs to change—and fast. Deep Spirit is an adventure story about the power of dreams to transform the world and create a brighter future. Jurassic Park scared us with 60-million-year-old dinosaur genes. Now, Deep Spirit inspires us with a 14-billion-year-old “echo” from the Big Bang. There’s no bigger story. Jurassic Park brought to life the power of the genetic code. Deep Spirit opens up the secrets of the “noetic code”—the way to higher intelligence. Cosmos. Consciousness. Contact. Higher intelligence—it's closer than you think.

If, when the Jehovah's Witnesses come a-knocking, you would not only invite them in, but pay them the cost of this book to preach at you for several hours, then by all means go ahead and buy this book. Because this book preaches at you for as many hours as you decide to spend reading it. There's only the barest attempt at incorporating any novel-like features, like, say, a plot, or any interesting characters. Mostly it's just one long sermon. Oh, and BTW, you're being preached to by a clairvoyant dolphin, whose message, which he keeps banging into you, is: we're too intellectual, and the planet would be much better off if we'd all just develop our intuition and stop being so darned rational. Which is at least consistent, because rational people wouldn't buy this book.
This book made me consider, with a bit of fear, what might happen if the Kindle takes off, and more books are published in electronic format only. Since there's a very small per-title cost, and virtually no per-unit cost, there's less incentive for electronic publishers to invest in the editorial process. It's probably cheaper just to publish an electronic book than to pay someone to review, refine and polish it. So all sorts of drivel can be flung at the market, and if any particular title doesn't take off, no skin off the publisher's nose - it's we consumers who do the work of separating the gems from the junk. And we pay the publisher to do it. Sigh.
Oh well. I did it for this book, so you don't have to. Don't bother with this one.
