Originally published in 1951, Homo Faber is an examination of the
scientific outlook on human mental evolution through the lens of
parapsychology. The book aims to undermine what its terms, the
'scientific outlook' examining the human interpretation of the
world, and the preconceived scientific concepts that reality does
not extend beyond the realm that our senses reveal. The book
expands upon this and moves to examine the broader human
understanding of the entire cosmos, challenging the scientific
conception that this can be grasped in principal by human
intellect, arising from the chance combination of material
particles. The book argues that the scientific outlook prevents
humans from discovering in the Universe the meaning and purpose
which are everywhere to be found if sought in the appropriate
contemplative states of mind. This book provides a unique take on
the examination of human psychology and the evolution of the brain
from an alternative scientific stance. It will be of interest to
anthropologists, historians and psychologists alike.
