Sex Ecology Spirituality The Spirit of Evolution Second Edition Ken Wilber Books

You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world - John 8:23

My respect for Ken Wilber has gone from mild to high after re-reading this book with updated preface, discovering that he wrote this book in righteous anger, as he counters the worldwide infestation of Cultural Marxism, Pluralistic Relativism and full-blown Postmodernism - the sick, bankrupt, but dominant ideology propounded from every corner and crevice.

This book is a deep and masterly look at the concepts and realities of Hierarchy and Holarchy. It is an excellent carry on from the work of many holistically-minded thinkers, especially of Arthur Koestler who first conceived of holon theory.

To his credit, Ken does justice to the thought of Hegel, Schelling, Whitehead, Emerson and other Idealists and sages. I'd have liked it if he had have included the great George Berkeley. But few writers ever mention him and his ideas today, so it's not too surprising.

Nevertheless, if your interested in dismantling the principles of Materialism, this will be a veritable Bible. Ken takes down the silliness scientifically, which is a commendable feat and asset.

Ken brilliantly explains the central ideas of Jean Piaget and particularly of the great poet and thinker Ralph Waldo Emerson. There are also beautiful and inspiring sections dealing with the mystical experiences and insights of St. Teresa of Avila.

In forthcoming editions it would be nice to see bolder opening dedications to both Georg Hegel and Friedrich Schelling, and more on Berkeley of course.

I recommend Arthur Koestler's superb trilogy:
"Sleepwalkers"
"Ghost in the Machine"
and "Act of Creation"

These are a must have for fans of Ken's ideas. These three books are becoming increasingly hard to find, and soon will be selling for exorbitant mark ups. Get them while you can.

Sex Ecology Spirituality The Spirit of Evolution Second Edition Ken Wilber Books Reviews

This is a somewhat long and difficult read but it is worth the effort to understand the thinking of one of the most profound philosophers of our time.
See above the sometimes awesome moments when I really had a bodily sense that joined with a cognitive reality, and I went wow!
As usual, Wilber presents a logically-unfolding argument and ties the threads of development together in a weave that illustrates a coherent picture of the human and our place in the interconnected web. I think he is the most important developmental philosopher of the century as, due largely to him, we now have good maps of human psychology-- and the places where its development can go wrong--that are badly needed by the therapeutic psychological arts.
On the other hand, Ken's books remain difficult to read because he is so concerned that his points get instilled, that he repeats/recapitulates his arguments in 10 different ways for each one! I'd give him 5 stars but for this.
An understandable description of the basics of living organisms on up through complex systems. Ken Wilber brings together the basic tenets of life - biological, social and spiritual.
Definitely the best place to start reading Ken Wilber imo, since all the depth and breadth is here.
This is Wilber's magnum opus with extraordinary depth and scope, covering many topics, from evolution, the Four Quardrants to the four stages of Spiritual development. ...The next step getting a direct dialogue going with KW and the other great genius of our time Peter Baofu.
Mind blowing. Ken Wilbur is funny. He is academically accurate and discusses complex philosophical issues with great clarity and without watering down the subject. He builds a case for everything he suggests and bashes various points of view, without bashing the values behind the views. Feminists, ecology advocates, and in fact, the entire western civilization and devastated by Wilbur with pointed criticisms of where they veered off course.
