Our picture of the world is being shaped by quantum theory. This dialogue explores the radical, exciting implications of quantum theory for personal and social life. It offers the possibility of a new understanding of the nature of human consciousness, physical reality, God, creativity, social activity, the future of science, and more. This new understanding may change how we see ourselves, and how we relate to the world. “If we’re quantum people,” Danah Zohar says, “we’re completely different from what we thought we were. It has vast implications.... Instead of being strangers and gypsies on the edge of an alien world, as people said about us in the old physics, we become fully members and partners in this universe.” (hosted by Michael Toms)
