Moreover, Consciousness was antecedently linked to a First Mind, the universe a mental and spiritual construction of a Divine Being. The Full Extent expands on these quantum truths and considers their spiritual implications, positioning the human future.

Heywood does this by introducing facts and posing questions for which he then proffers a variety of answers, allowing ... more
