The Story of the Noosphere is the latest edition of Brian Thomas Swimme's cosmological work. Together with philosopher Monica DeRaspe-Bolles, Swimme explores heredity, tools, reflective consciousness, communication, population, trade, cerebralization, and convergence across four eras of human history. Based on contemporary science and empirical data, the book challenges readers to move past Modernity's overemphasis on rationality and embrace the dynamism of imagination and reflection, into the noospheric era--the unification of humanity. The book has an accompanying YouTube series.
