“…a book, an experiential treasure, an ancient, jeweled mosaic. God 4.0 is a
profoundly practical masterwork of love and selfless service, a required gift
and warning to our species – delivered in the nick of time.” — Willa Moore, Will
J. Reid Foundation



“AN ACCLAIMED AND INNOVATIVE PSYCHOLOGIST’S MAGNUM OPUS.” — KIRKUS




GOD 4.0: ON THE NATURE OF HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS AND THE EXPERIENCE CALLED “GOD”

AVAILABLE NOW

“What is needed, now, is a new view, to reassess and reform the concept of God.
It is the experience of going beyond the norm to achieve insight as to how life
events are connected on a “higher” level. We now have an idea of how the process
happens in the brain and, importantly, how to develop this innate potential in
today’s world. This knowledge could be the first small step toward finding the
common ground for us to stand on to work toward a new spiritual literacy.”

— Robert Ornstein

“recommended for psychology and spirituality collections … considers the
intersection between the two as it probes different notions of ‘God’ and higher
consciousness.” — MidWest Book Review

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“…the capstone to Robert Ornstein’s brilliant, ground-breaking half century of
research into the dimensions, capacities, and purposes of human consciousness.”
—Tony Hiss

“This landmark book shines new light on things we thought we understood.”
—Charles Swencionis





THE PSYCHOLOGY OF CONSCIOUS EVOLUTION TRILOGY

When first published, Robert Ornstein’s classics, The Psychology of
Consciousness and The Evolution of Consciousness, introduced the two modes of
consciousness of the left and right brain hemispheres and a critical
understanding of how the brain evolved. Ornstein considered these, along with
his latest book, God 4.0: On the Nature of Higher Consciousness and the
Experience Called “God,” his most important writings. The three books together
provide a fundamental reconsideration of ancient religious and spiritual
traditions in the light of advances in brain science and psychology, exploring
the potential and relevance of this knowledge to contemporary needs and to our
shared future. Read more…
