Marx Hubbard BarbaraIn 1945 the United States dropped atomic bombs on Japan, and the world caught its breath. This pivotal event deeply impacted the young Barbara Marx Hubbard, who found herself asking President Eisenhower, What is the meaning of our power that is good?Barbara's 40+ year inquiry, and the answers she has found, offer invaluable assistance to us all at this time in our history. What she discovered and shares through her books, DVDs, and public talks is that despite the state of the world, we are truly on the threshold of great possibility, of our own conscious evolution. Buckminster Fuller said, There is no doubt in my mind that Barbara Marx Hubbard - who helped introduce the concept of futurism to society - is the best informed human now alive regarding futurism and the foresights it has produced. Barbara Marx Hubbard has been called the voice for conscious evolution... by Deepak Chopra. She is the subject of Neale Donald Walsch's book The Mother of Invention. And many would agree she is the global ambassador for conscious change. At her heart, Barbara Marx Hubbard is a visionary, a social innovator. She is an evolutionary thinker who believes that global change happens when we work collectively and selflessly for the greater good. She realizes that the lessons of evolution teach us that problems are evolutionary drivers, and crises precede transformation, giving a new way of seeing and responding to our global situation. As a prolific author and educator, Barbara has written eight books on social and planetary evolution. She has produced, hosted, and contributed to countless documentaries seen by millions of people around the world. In conjunction with the Shift Network, Barbara co-produced the worldwide Birth 2012 multi-media event that was seen as a historic turning point in exposing the social, spiritual, scientific, and technological potential in humanity. In 1984 her name was placed in nomination for the Vice Presidency of the United States on the Democratic ticket, calling for a Peace Room to scan for, map, connect and communicate what is working in America and the world. She also co-chaired a number of Soviet-American Citizen Summits, introducing a new concept called SYNCON to foster synergistic convergence with opposing groups. In addition she co-founded the World Future Society, and the Association for Global New Thought. Barbara Marx Hubbard is not an idealist, nor does she believe that social and planetary change is simple. But she does believe that humanity has the tools, fortitude, and resolve to take the leap towards conscious evolution. Her books include: The Hunger of Eve: One Woman's Odyssey toward the Future; The Evolutionary Journey: Your Guide to a Positive Future; Revelation: Our Crisis is a Birth -An Evolutionary Interpretation of the New Testament; Conscious Evolution: Awakening the Power of our Social Potential; Emergence: The Shift from Ego to Essence; 52 Codes for Conscious Self Evolution and Birth 2012 and Beyond: Humanity's Great Shift to the Age of Conscious Evolution, and The Suprasexual Revolution.
