Episode description

Welcome to the Sense-Making in a Changing World podcast. I'm Morag Gamble and my guest in this episode is acclaimed author, educator and philosopher Jeremy Lent.  I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. 

Jeremy, described by Guardian journalist George Monbiot as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age,”  investigates the underlying causes of our civilization’s existential crisis, and explores pathways toward a life-affirming future.

BOOKS BY JEREMY LENT
Jerermy's award-winning book, The Patterning Instinct: A Cultural History of Humanity’s Search for Meaning, examines the way humans have made meaning from the cosmos from hunter-gatherer times to the present day.  His new book, The Web of Meaning: Integrating Science and Traditional Wisdom to Find Our Place in the Universe, offers a solid foundation for an integrative worldview that could lead humanity to a sustainable, flourishing future. 

JEREMY'S ORGANISATION AND NETWORK
Jeremy is the founder of the nonprofit Liology Institute focussing on connecting science and traditional wisdom to lay a solid foundation for a worldview of interconnectedness - a worldview that will enable humans to thrive on our planet harmoniously and sustainably.

Since we recorded this conversation, Jeremy has also launched the Deep Transformation Network Jeremy, which I am helping to moderate.

Jeremy also shares in his blog.
