The Bond: How to Fix Your Falling-Down World (2016)

We need to take measures more radical than individual instances of benign capitalism or civic recovery. We require nothing less than a revolution in our thinking

The third of this trilogy, The Bond is a brilliant new blueprint for living a more harmonious, prosperous and connected life – based on the findings of the new science. If we are not separate, how do we live? What’s the new way to be?

We are currently in crisis because we live a lie. We believe life is all about I win-you lose – survival of the fittest. But in fact, we flourish only when we work together as part of a greater whole, as her profound and life-altering book proves.

Pulling together a vast array of cutting edge scientific discovery, she demonstrates that we are in a ‘Bond’ — a profound interconnection — with everything and everyone. If we are to survive and prosper, individually and collectively, we must learn to move past ‘every man for himself’ to ‘we’re all in this together.’

The Bond, which has received plaudits around the world, including a gold Nautilus award for the best new science book of 2012, also sets out the first complete ‘how-to’ manual for how to get through the many challenges of our times – and thrive.

Lynne offers extensive exercises to help you retrain yourself to see the world from a more holistic perspective, enjoy closer, more connected relationships, create a more united community and workplace, and transform into a powerful agent of change.

These ‘Tools for a New World’ contain extensive exercises and practices to help you heal your own world — your relationships, your workplace, your neighborhood and community – and the world at large.

As the first roadmap of how to live according to the new scientific story, The Bond is the way forward, the next stage in our evolution.
