About the Book

The book's primary focus explores the issues underlying the crises in health. Strong evidence emerges for the interrelatedness of crises across the globe, and points to the specific changes in education which are required before any significant shift can be expected in the various crises we face, whether in personal and community health, or more broadly in the failure of natural systems. The authors venture an extensive research, including statistics in health sciences, quantum mechanics, philosophy of health in western and eastern cultures, neuroscience, theories of human development, and an understanding of what Maslow termed 'the farther reaches' of human development. Drawing on philosophical perspectives, theories and research from these seemingly disparate disciplines the authors substantiate a new paradigm in education, psyche and culture, and specifically in health education.
