"A lighted fuse."- Toronto Globe and Mail "An exciting vision of the future."- Cleveland Plain Dealer "May decisively affect the future of us all." -San Francisco Sunday Examiner and Chronicle The Aquarian Conspiracy describes the activities of a powerful network of leading-edge thinkers, businesspeople, scientists and politicians who are working to create a different kind of society based on a vastly enlarged concept of human potential. According to The New York Times, this "alternative thought...is working its way increasingly into the nation's cultural, religious, social, economic, and political life." Who are these conspirators? What are their beliefs? Where are they leading us? The Aquarian Conspiracy answers these questions and provides a convincing picture of a possible and positive future. "A new charter of human possibility."-/Vor/7?an Cousins "A virtuoso performance. The Aquarian Conspiracy will be the focus of endless comment, conversation, compliments, criticism, controversy, and celebration." -Charles Weingartner, coauthor of Teaching as a Subversive Activity "I completely agree with the book's message of confidence in the future." - Ilya Prigogine, Nobel laureate "Marilyn Ferguson goes everywhere to the heart of the matter." -Albert Szent-Gyorgi, Nobel laureate Marilyn Ferguson lives in Los Angeles, where she publishes Brain/Mind Bulletin, the most widely read report on brain research and consciousness.
