Author Description

Genius may be nothing more than the ability to see the world from a new perspective. We may not make you a genius, but this book can help you to see the world from a different vantage point-one that offers the prospect of greater potential, equality, and hope for humanity. First, we challenge the historical primacy of a masculine God and patriarchy as the natural order of life. What if the earliest human communities were peaceful, cooperative, and sustainable? Moving quickly through eons, we will discuss some of the Neolithic characteristics of old Europe and the emergence of masculine power during the Bronze Age. Drawing on the earliest, but often overlooked, feminine contributions to civilization, we will explore the original Jewish mother and the emerging worldwide resurrection of Mary. Finally, we explore the sacred feminine perspective in today's world. We will analyze the price civilization pays for suppressing the feminine aspects of our better nature. The book concludes with an attempt to rediscover the best practices of ancient history and modern insights to build a new balance for a society with gender equality and partnership. Join us as we go forward to the past!
