Delve into the positive evolutionary potential concealed within one of history's most destructive events with Ego: The Fall of the Twin Towers and the Rise of an Enlightened Humanity. Authors Peter Baumann and Michael W. Taft examine the profound evolutionary implications of 9/11, suggesting that humankind is not descending into a new dark age but is instead on the cusp of a brighter future, driven by the Darwinian process of natural selection.
The authors’ investigation leads directly to the core of human problems: the ego. By analysing the ego’s origins and history using the latest research from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, psychology, and palaeontology, Baumann and Taft reveal unexpected insights into human behaviour:
The sense of self we identify with, including its biases and beliefs, emerged approximately 5,000 years ago during the conceptual revolution—a significant developmental leap. This emerging ego was an evolutionary mechanism intended to ensure individual survival, accompanying our ability to create complex tools, art, and new social structures. The problem, as argued by the authors, arises when we accept the ego's conceptualisation of reality as the absolute truth of who we are.
Drawing on extensive research, Baumann and Taft contend that humanity may be approaching a new expansion of cognitive abilities, similar to the initial development of the ego. This forthcoming evolutionary step promises to free the mind from its confines, unlocking the vast potential of conscious awareness.

Warm and extremely comfortable! Excellent value for money👍
Very good quality product, happy with what was received and was exactly as expected.
These were the first Crocs I bought and are a special favourite. The colour is a standout and I always love wearing them.
Solid little block. Works well to power my Raspberry Pi and 7" LCD. Been running it for the last week or so, no issues so far.
Easy roll on application so even my toddler can handle it himself. He has sensitive skin and uses the Nivea Kids sunscreen without any issues.
