A multidisciplinary textbook, coauthored with Pier Luigi Luisi and published by Cambridge University Press.
The authors present a coherent systemic framework that integrates the biological, cognitive, social, and ecological dimensions of life; and they discuss the philosophical, political, economic, and spiritual implications of this unifying vision. They believe that it will be critical for present and future generations of young students and researchers to understand this new systemic conception of life and its implications for a broad range of professions — from the life sciences to economics, management, politics, medicine, psychology, and law.
The book has been published in five editions in five languages: English, Italian, Portuguese; Danish and Russian (Cambridge University Press, UK; Aboca, Italy; Cultrix, Brazil; Mindspace, Copenhagen; Editorial URSS, Moscow).
Important note: this book is not required for the course and is not offered as part of the course either. However, the full course is based on this book and it is recommended for those who would like to have a full version of what is presented through the Capra Course.
