Synopsis

For the millions who want to find peace, love, and purpose without religion, Cambridge-educated scientist, wisdom teacher, and leadership expert Nick Jankel sets out a radical new philosophy that reunites cutting-edge science with timeless wisdom to help us make better life choices, build better businesses, and transform our life, love, and leadership challenges so we thrive."Eye-opening… a nuanced way to expand the views of even a hardened atheist." Kirkus Reviews"A taboo-smashing book." BookbagSpiritual Atheist is a ground-breaking philosophical memoir that draws on the author's knowledge of cutting-edge neuroscience, physics, and psychology; his insights into wisdom traditions like Taoism, Buddhism, and Zen; and twenty years experience leading hundreds of major organizations, and tens of thousands of individuals, to transform themselves.If you trust science, and relish reason, but also sense that your life has purpose, your consciousness is real and that love is a force for good - all phenomena that conventional atheism denies - then spiritual atheism can help you have it all without dogma or superstition of any kind. Not limited to revolutionizing your own happiness and wellbeing, spiritual atheism can ensure that, together, we recalibrate capitalism, reinvent politics, and make AI, business, and technology work for all.This book is ideal for those looking for answers to the biggest questions in life; and who want to be part of the solution for our broken world.

Instead, I gravita......more

Ok book overall with both positives and negatives in my opinion. My positives are his two main points that get used over and over which are "control and protect mode" and "create and connect mode". The two modes in their core definition (as the author keeps giving explanations for it depending on th......more

Jankel tries to have it both ways. He wants to discard science when it doesn't provide the answers to life, the universe, and everything, but then he uses it to justify a new, do-it-yourself spiritual atheism. Having said that, the book does contribute to a much needed discussion of spiritual, heart......more

So that's why it was freely available.. I suppose if you want a 'how-to' course on straw-manning, with the goal of making an otherwise sound idea look like garbage, this book would be worth your while. I'll grant that I think the intentions of the author probably are sincere when it comes to his goal......more
