Howard Bloom is a recent visiting scholar in the Graduate Psychology Department of New York University and a Core Faculty Member at The Graduate Institute, Howard is the author of two books: The Lucifer Principle: A Scientific Expedition Into the Forces of History ("mesmerizing"-The Washington Post) and Global Brain: The Evolution of Mass Mind From The Big Bang to the 21st Century ("reassuring and sobering"-The New Yorker). Bloom is the founder of two new fields-paleopsychology and mass behavior. Christopher Boehm, the director of the Jane Goodall Research Institute says, "Howard Bloom should be taking notes on what he's doing every minute of the day. He is single-handedly creating a scientific revolution." Gear Magazine has said Bloom is "....the next Stephen Hawking. But he's not just interested in science. He's interested in the human soul." Britain's Channel 4 TV has dubbed Bloom "...the Darwin, Einstein, Newton, and Freud of the 21st Century". And Joseph Chilton Pearce, author of Evolution's End and The Crack in the Cosmic Egg, says, "I have finished Howard Bloom's two books, The Lucifer Principle and Global Brain, in that order, and am seriously awed, near overwhelmed by the magnitude of what he has done. I never expected to see, in any form, from any sector, such an accomplishment. I doubt there is a stronger intellect than Bloom's on the planet."
