The Infinite Consciousness, August 10, 2008
Christopher Ciccone is Madonna's brother. He will be discussing his new book "Life With My Sister Madonna". Christopher had hoped this book might go some way to answering that eternal question no one has ever asked, "What is it really like to be Madonna's brother?" But as I've got no sense of self and even less insight, that's totally beyond me. So I've settled for bitching about that mediocre diva whom I adore really.

“Eva Herr has perhaps written the best introduction to the new developing post-materialist scientific paradigm on consciousness based on quantum physics. Consciousness – Bridging the Gap Between Conventional Science and the New Science of Quantum Mechanics is an important read." Amit Goswami, author of The Self-Aware Universe, The Quantum Doctor, and Physics of the Soul
We need to change the world and we can only change it if we change ourselves. Changing ourselves means changing our consciousness — how we think about the world and ourselves in the world. But we won't change our consciousness unless and until we realize that consciousness is not something abstract and imaginary but the most concrete element in human life — and in the universe. The new sciences, especially quantum physics, lend unprecedented credence to this emerging insight. Eva Herr in her brilliant collection of pioneering thinkers and scientists demonstrates this crucial fact. Her book CONSCIOUSNESS should be read by all conscious people — and that means all healthy and responsible people, whatever they do and wherever they live on this precious but deeply endangered planet.
