He is the author of ten books, including Waking Up in Time and From Science to God: A Physicist&aposs Journey into the Mystery of Consciousness.

Listen as we discuss:

One of my favorite topics as of late: slowing downJust how small humanity&aposs collective and individual lifespan is on a universal scaleHow culture is exponentially accelerating, figuratively and literallyThe resistance that all forces traveling at fast speeds eventually reach, including usTaking more responsibility for ourselves against the belief that the more you have, the happier you’ll be Reaching a state of happiness without conditionsThe ideal pace at which humanity can moveThe struggle to remain optimistic about the evolution of the Global BrainThe Network of HumanityScience&aposs biggest questions: What is the universe made of? What is consciousness?"Consciousness is that which knows, but we don’t know what consciousness is"From Science to God - Peter’s journey from hardcore scientist to "believer"Convincing the neuroscience community to study consciousness (see Dr. Dan Siegel)Why referring to God as a noun is a misconception in Peter&aposs view
