Jump Time: Living in the Future Tense

In her major new work, bestselling author and scholar Dr. Jean Houston, one of the founders and leading figures of the human-potential movement, draws on her more than thirty-five years of research into human development to reveal how the millennial passage portends a new birth for humanity--a "jump time" in both global and individual consciousness.

Dr. Houston explains how six dynamic forces have been building over the previous generation and how they point to a quantum leap forward for each citizen of the earth. In Jump Time, she goes beyond merely tracing the origins and nature of this leap--she points to how each of us can harness our existing day-to-day activities and consciousness to remake the world.

Jump Time is the deepest expression of Dr. Houston's work as the philosopher of human and cultural capacities who has helped shape the concept of human potential for a generation. Her book is the ultimate statement of the revolution in human awareness and abilities, and the crowning authorial achievement from one of the most dramatic and adventurous social thinkers and doers of our time.
