Howard Bloom is on a mission. In this book he shows the development of intelligence from single cells up to cultural evolution in human societies.

Bloom starts of with the statement that the global brain is not a human invention in the 21st century, but that it already existed in the primordial soup in bacteria colonies. Step by step he unravels the basic drivers of evolution and transformation to higher and higher levels of intelligence and interconnectedness.

It is amazing when reading trough the book to feel that a lot if intelligence that we basically consider to be human/ cultural intelligence is basically building on patterns that already existed in bacteria life, ants colonies and all kind of other life.

It unravels some of the mysteries of life and makes the reader understand that lots of unconscious social behavior is rooted much deeper into the history of evolution than thought by many. Freeing ourselves from these old patterns and roots to become cocreators with life makes a better understanding of these first chapters of evolution a necessary reading.
