Daniel Pinchbeck at The Ballroom Book Bash
Daniel Pinchbeck is the bestselling author of 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl and Breaking Open the Head: A Psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism.
In Pinchbeck's highly anticipated new book, Notes From the Edge Times, he explores the "edge realms," touching upon topics ranging from the financial collapse to our need for a new media paradigm to the meaning of 2012. In the process, he challenges readers to consider some pressing questions:
* "[A]t a time when war has become a permanent social relation, and the planet's life support systems are in jeopardy," can we really cut ourselves off from political and societal involvement?
* Does our monetary system require a fundamental redesign?
* How can the millions of us who currently practice disciplines such as Buddhism, yoga and Shamanism apply our spiritual ideals in a social movement?
* Can we overcome deeply ingrained cultural stereotypes to spark a new sexual revolution defined by self-awareness and acceptance?
Provocative and unflinching, Notes From the Edge Times not only critically examines the state of modern society; it offers a way forward in this transitional time.
Pinchbeck will read from, discuss and sign copies of his books at the Ballroom Book Bash. Also,in addition to the Ballroom Lounge's renowned bar, the Bash will feature the Experimental / Electroacoustic / Progressive
music of The Ghosts Project.
