Book Description : With this book, Dr. Miller makes
his greatest contribution to the transformation, the paradigm shift,
that so many of us are working toward and that must occur if we want to
be in harge of setting our communal direction into the future –
something that must occur if we are to create sustainability, or to
even survive. Dr. Miller's life and work have been an ongoing process
of awakening to certain eternal truths about life and humanity. COTC is
written for those who are also awakening, or who are ready to begin
waking up to the fact that we must go beyond the limitations of the
past and create a sustainable, just, and peaceful future.
In COTC, Dr.
Miller performs a thorough examination, arriving at accurate diagnoses
for the serious ailments that currently threaten our civilization. But,
surprisingly, the prognosis is not necessarily dire. Despite the litany
of problems we face – personal fear, illness and depression; violence;
political and corporate corruption; terrorism; environmental devastation
– Miller finds underlying causes that he believes can be successfully
treated.
Applying a systems approach, Dr. Miller performs a
careful evaluation of the symptoms displayed by his planetary patient
and discovers fundamental principles at the base of the majority of
these problems. He recommends a treatment plan that involves applying
these principles at every level of system (personal, family, community,
cultural, national and global ecosystem), the result of which could be
the cure we’ve been looking for.
The principles involve no less
than a transformation from the current paradigm based on separation and
opposition to one that focuses on cooperation and unity. For Dr. Miller,
this new paradigm is the answer to the world’s problems as well as to
the myriad ailments that plague human beings even in this era of medical
breakthroughs and advanced technology. But can we, as a society, learn
to work together after centuries of finding every reason under the sun
to oppose each other? Dr. Miller thinks we can. And he offers a
blueprint for a new type of leadership that incorporates the values and
goals we all hold as individuals and shows us how advances in
technology, specifically the Internet, makes dispersing this leadership
throughout the world possible. (Read the full description at OurCultureOnTheCouch.com )
