Being Spherical—Reshaping Our Lives and
Our World for the 21st Century


In the book Being Spherical - Reshaping Our Lives and Our World for the 21st Century authors Phil Lawson and Robert Lindstrom explain the origins of our current worldview; why it has expired and how we can see the world anew.

In this concise work, the authors explore the dynamics of living in the 21st Century—how you and I are individually and collectively shaping the future. The authors explain why in this dawning era of interconnection and interdependency, we require a dramatic transformation in the way we think, see and act.

Being Spherical uses a "sphere" as metaphor to help readers integrate compartmentalized views. It explains our attraction to concepts such as: emergents, integrity, flexibility, adaptability and awareness. The book identifies the origins of mankind's mechanistic mindset-why it served us and why it is no longer applicable. It reveals ways to leap from old views to new; to ignite innovation.

(Of note: Mr. Lawson believes the words "whole" and "sphere" are both useful in helping people shift their mindset to see whole and be whole.)

Read a book review by John Maling, Ph.D.

"Being Spherical is a modern philosophical treatise that is attractively bound and illustrated. It espouses the need for complete social integration as the next step in the evolution of our civilization, a step that may ultimately be essential to the very survival of the human race ... They even provide a "Spherical Modeling Tool" (SMT) for analyzing the complete range of human activities ...

The Book has great merit. It targets, gives practical tools to, and is best understood by the thoughtful individual who has interest and experience with philosophical generalizations, and who is concerned with our world, its long-term direction and our long-term survival as a civilization and a race."

"This powerful book paints a sweeping panorama of the evolving journey of humanity on its way towards wholeness and authenticity. It invites us to embrace the rich complexity and messiness of life, rather than neatly putting things into categories that are partial and limiting.”
—JoEllen Koerner, PhD Author of "Mother, Heal My Self"
