"Ken Wilber is a national treasure. No one is working at the
integration of Eastern and Western wisdom literature with such
depth or breadth of mind and heart as he." —Robert Kegan, Professor
of Education, Harvard University Graduate School of Education, and
author of In Over Our Heads
"When Ken Wilber’s thought walks through your mind, the door to the
next higher level becomes visible. Anyone seeking to update the
wisdom traditions of their lineage needs his reality and
consciousness maps. The kabbalah of the future will lean on Ken’s
work." —Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi
"Ken Wilber is today’s greatest philosopher and both critic and
friend to authentic religion, a true postmodern Thomas Aquinas."
—Father Richard Rohr, Center for Action and Contemplation
"In the ambitiously titled A Brief History of
Everything, Wilber continues his search for the primary
patterns that manifest in all realms of existence. Like Hegel in
the West and Aurobindo in the East, Wilber is a thinker in the
grand systematic tradition, an intellectual adventurer concerned
with nothing less than the whole course of evolution, life's
ultimate trajectory—in a word, everything. . . . Combining
spiritual sensitivity with enormous intellectual understanding and
a style of elegance and clarity, A Brief History of
Everything is a clarion call for seeing the world as a whole,
much at odds with the depressing reductionism of trendy
Foucault-derivative academic philosophy. "—San Francisco Chronicle
