This is an extremely courageous book which touches on what is perhaps the most perplexing and important issue of our time - where we have come from as humankind, what we are doing to ourselves and our planet in so many different realms from the psychological to the ecological, and what impact our conduct may be having on other life forms in the universe. Neil Gould has dared to say that the Emperor has no clothes on. He invites his readers to listen to their intuitive reasoning when addressing these profound issues and to consider seriously the previously unthinkable notions that we are not alone in the universe nor at the top of the food chain, to accept that alternative energies are indeed available in a planet polluting itself to death with toxic hydrocarbon based fuels and to come terms with the fact that a more spiritually aware and advanced world collaborating on vital national and international issues rather than fighting over them, will ultimately prove to be a vastly improved, healthier, more productive, optimistic and happier place in which to live. It is a story of courage and creativity as well as trauma. Time and again he is abused, abandoned, and attacked. His boyhood terrain of South Africa is simultaneously mystical and brutal. As a result his brain, like a metronome, clicks between seeking creative stimulation amid a brain riddled with paralyzing trauma scars. Leap-scar-leap-scar. Trauma becomes a perfect recipe for his relentless cognitive obsession with risk, that is more often than not, rewarded with punishment, isolation, and a brick wall of cultural tradition. His ADHD cry echoing, "What's wrong with everyone" He prevails by reaching beyond his brain into the multiverse of consciousness. He likens it to a computer browser where new screens appear to relieve human imposed boundaries. A lifespan of extraterrestrial contact, including downloads, communications
