Every now and then a very simple, but radical idea shakes the foundations of knowledge. Consider for example, the discovery that the Earth was round rather than flat. This discovery challenged the way people perceived themselves and their relationship with their surroundings. Our ancestors were challenged to believe that the world was round even though the ground they walked on was flat. Nothing in their everyday experience revealed anything about the truth of this idea. So to those living 500 years ago, the idea of a round Earth seemed complete nonsense. Likewise today, biocentrism is turning the world upside down once again; with the seemingly simple idea that the universe arises from life and not the other way around.
In Robert Lanza’s new theory of biocentrism, life is not just an accidental byproduct of the laws of physics. Instead, Lanza suggests the exhilarating possibility that life is fundamentally immortal. Biocentrism sends the reader on a seemingly improbable but ultimately inescapable journey through a foreign universe, which happens to be our own universe. It does this through the perspective and viewpoints of an acclaimed biologist and leading astronomer.
All of this and more is explained in his exciting and stimulating book entitled, Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness are the Keys to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe.
The 21st century is predicted to be the Century of Biology, a shift from the previous century dominated by physics. It seems fitting, then, to begin the century by turning the universe outside-in and unifying the foundations of science with a simple idea discovered by one of the leading life-scientists of our age, Robert Lanza. Biocentrism awakens in readers a new sense of possibility, and is full of so many shocking new perspectives that the reader will never see reality the same way again. At the same time it will release us from the dull worldview of life being merely the activity of an admixture of carbon and a few other elements; it suggests the exhilarating possibility that life is fundamentally immortal.
With Biocentrism, Robert Lanza shatters the reader’s ideas of life, time, space, and even death. By switching the perspective from physics to biology, he unlocks the cages in which Western science has unwittingly managed to confine itself for so many years.
