Ideas In Bloom

Hth_sabine_thumbnail Howard Bloom is one interesting author.  On his website is a quote from Richard Metzger, creative director, The Disinformation Company "I have met God, and he lives in Brooklyn. …Howard Bloom is next in a lineage of seminal thinkers that includes Newton, Darwin, Einstein, Freud, and Buckminster Fuller…he is going to change the way we see ourselves and everything around us."

Since I am from Brooklyn myself, the idea that God is from Brooklyn appeals to me in my more egocentric movements. I have to admit that I have sampled a bit from Howard Bloom’s books The Lucifer Principle and Global Brain but never devoured them whole. They reveal a man of ideas with a broad sweep.

Currently he is working on a new book with the working title: Reinventing Capitalism-Putting Soul In the Machine: A Quick Re-Vision Of Western Civilization which you can read more about here. No Gene is an Island" is a recent interview with Bloom by former Mondo 2000 editor RU Sirius. For a selection of his books on Amazon go here" . .
