Review of "Global Brain" by Howard Bloom
This spring break I had the pleasure to read Global Brain by Howard Bloom. Biz highly rated this book, and as I have blogged on Mr. Bloom's previous book and enjoyed his appearances on Coast to Coast AM, when I say this tome at Barnes & Noble I couldn't resist.
How to summarize Global Brain? I could say it's about neural networks, or emergence, or even Matthew 13:12, but that captures only a trillionth of the work. Instead I'll use the subtitle, The Evolution of Mass Mind from the Big Bang to the 21st Century.
