Living Systems with Fritjof Capra, Ph.D.

MP3 Download A new scientific understanding of life at all levels of living systems is currently evolving. At its heart is the awareness that everything is interconnected and interrelated. Out of this awareness comes the greatest challenge of our times - creating sustainable communities. Capra describes what he means when he suggests that we must shift from linear thinking to systems thinking. While we have been told for decades that we live in the Information Age, Fritjof Capra says, "The idea that success in the 21st century will depend on access to information is hype; it's nonsense. There is enough information - we have an information overload. Success and survival in the 21st century will depend on ecological awareness and on new ideas of how to change our technology and ways of doing business. Our children need to learn values, ideas, knowledge and wisdom, not just how to use computers to access more and more information." (hosted by Michael Toms) Bio Fritjof Capra, Ph.D. physici
