Changing Images of Man Markley, O.W., & Harman, Willis W. (Eds)
This book was prepared for the Center for the Study of Social Policy, SRI International, by Joseph Campbell, Duane Elgin, Willis Harman (Project Supervisor), Arthur Hastings, O.W. Markley (Project Director), Floyd Matson, Brendan O'Regan, and Leslie Schneider. Its purpose is "to chart, insofar as possible, what changes in the conceptual premises underlying Western Society would lead to a desirable future" (p. xvii). It is a modified version of a report by the same title issued by SRI International. Parapsychology and consciousness research is dealt with in Chapter 4, influence of Science on the "Images of Man," by Brendan O'Regan. He discusses the potential impact of parapsychology on images of humankind. The book concludes with a description of a future viable image which "reinstates the transcendental, spiritual side of humankind so long ignored or denied by . . . science." Methods of facilitating and implementing this image are also described.
