The Bond. How to Fix your Falling-Down World By Lynne McTaggart
From quantum science discoveries of entangled particles and the observer effect to the ways that we are affected by solar activity and findings that evolution appears more intentional than random – this book starts with a fascinating overview of how everything is interconnected. The author then elucidates our human desire to belong, to agree with one another, to contribute and to take turns; all natural impulses that become stifled in our modern commercialised world.
There follows a section on how much healthier, happier and ultimately more successful we are when we work together rather than against each other, with moving real-life examples. By prioritising the good of the group over the individual, everyone is better off. The final section includes advice on how to create a more holistic view of the world, by focussing on the Bond, meaning the space between things and the relationships between people. I found this book informative, enjoyable and inspiring.
