Fritjof Capra, The Systems View of LifeBack"In this first lecture of the course, I would like to give you an outline of the new understanding of life that is now emerging at the forefront of science. As I mentioned before, it is a conception of life based on systemic thinking and some of the new concepts and mathematical techniques of complexity theory. It allows us for the first time to integrate the biological, cognitive, and social dimensions of life".

People should know that everything is connected. Somehow, many still believe that mind and body are different things, the same way they judge social and material aspects.
That's nice to have people like Capra helping to clear such distorced visions.
Nice video!! Ecological philosophy, aways!!

I really like the Mr. Capras intensions of writing "The turning point", forcing me to studie a lot, one point I do not agree: Not only uprising science(Descartes/Newton)made people see the world in a mechanic and soulless way, 100 years early voyaging and slavery began(Renaissance)and that was nasty and eval and unecologic from the beginning.
Much respect anyway to F.Capra and hopefully us transforming all into ecological species.

The picture of "world as a mashine" existed already in the heads of the "gold hunters",and the way they have written bout africans/indians/slaves is just disgusting and hurts so bad just reading it.But he is right that the antiholistic decomposition of all sciences and splitting of medicin/psychologie/economy/sociologie/ecologie is surely based in the views of scientists of that time. And Aristoteles long time bevor in denying reincarnation,great mistake to take peoples natural borders.

i do believe the messages are vital for the sustainability of the planet if we, human beings, really want to prolong their existence therein. Besides, i really find some comments very interesting and which is the reflection of our daily life that apart from fiasco nothing constructive, positive and loving-kindness can be achieved within our social institutions and structures. What a global drama of life!

ok, 'mature' person. Who are you to make such judgement upon me? What do you do? What 'are you'? Another lunatic North American who thinks to be able to tell to others what they are and what they're not? I apologized you in my first reply. That's a mature thing. But you preferred taking the dialog to a strange path. You seem to be alone out there and with no friends, with out anything else to do, and then go to Internet to piss the folks off, persons like me. Ok. You got me. Now, get lost.

You act as if you were (biologically speaking) around 15 years old child. Biologically you age much more than this, we know. But psichologically you probably do age the mentioned one. You're so corrosive that you don't care if the other (here, myself) will understand all what you say. You just say and presuppose that it'll all be understood. You're what we call down here 'enrustido'. Get lost, enrustido, viado, chupa-pau!

ok moral and wise pederast, you listen to me:you really don't know me to say things from my being. So, shut your mouth (you dick sucker) up, go learning how to write in proper English, and get lost.You discuss with everyone around here.You, looser, look like a person with no friends, trying to upset the sociable ones. Go reading a self-improvement stuff to get you out of such well. I don't know what 'arseholes' means. Did you mean 'asshole', you asshole? I'm 18 years old and know 4 languages.
