It is not often that something so simple as one plus one equals three comes along to change your life. Of course, the equation itself is powerless, so this audiobook sets out to explore the increase in human potential. This can occur when the idea of interdependence, being the backbone of this formula, is allowed to freely intermingle with all aspects of life.

Will you be richer or poorer? What does the future hold for you - and for the world? Supposedly, we're all getting richer, but many of us feel we’re becoming poorer. Why? One reason is our economy doesn’t even measure many kinds of wealth and ignores many costs. Clearly, clean air and water, good health, and civil liberties are valuable, but you won’t find these on any balance sheet. Our system’s incentives are to maximize short-term financial profits, and everything else is treated as if it doesn’t exist.

Digital Consciousness is a philosophical dialogue into the evolution of consciousness within the digital terrain and the legacy footprint on the human family. Exploring the emotional 'digital' frequency of self is a concept that Tenille Bentley has given a great deal of thought to, and some of the answers to these questions and more may surprise you. While not everyone wants to ‘change the world’ we do all have the power at our fingertips now to radically affect change for someone, somewhere, some place. Recognising this ability and harnessing how we use the internet is the basis for this book.

For example, they can become punks with green hair, pierce all body parts, and eat almost trash?

Parallèle d'autant plus pertinent qu'il est prémonitoire des attentats de novembre 2015 et de mars 2016 à Bruxelles.

En tant que société et en tant qu'individu, nous nous questionnons sur notre identité et notre personnalité, comme sur les moteurs de nos actions. Se reconnaître dans le miroir, c'est à l'échelle collective, se reconnaître dans les institutions et les règles qui régissent notre vivre-ensemble. Pour ne pas subir la loi, il faut l'avoir choisie. Héritage historique et culturel, ensemble de valeurs et de comportements, "l'esprit français" est une attitude, une culture et une identité. Toutefois la profondeur du débat est épineuse, car est-il seulement possible de dresser un portrait qui rassemble, sans diviser ni exclure ?
