Magazine ([WE] Review) and Catalog founded by Stewart Brand
http://www.wholeearthmag.com/
Original Catalog intro by Stewart Brand: [We Are As Gods] and might as well get good at it. So far remotely done power and glory - as via government, big business, formal education, church - has succeeded to the point where gross defects obscure actual gains (Scale Vs Consolidation). In response to this dilemma and to these gains, a realm of intimate, personal power is developing - the power of individuals to conduct their own education, find their own inspiration, shape their own environment, and share the adventure with whoever is interested. Tools that aid this process are sought and promoted by the Whole Earth Catalog.
the [We Are As Gods] was inspired by [Edmund Leach], [A Runaway World] ISBN:0563074337 Men have become like gods. Isn't it about time that we understood our divinity? Science offers us total mastery over our environment and over our destiny, yet instead of rejoicing we feel deeply afraid. Why should this be? How might these fears be resolved? Sounds like Evolut Ion.
