I found this article very inspiring too. It sort of synthesizes the topics and lines of inquiry I have been drawn into in the past few years. What he failed to mention though is the role played by advances in the research into evolution of consciousness which show that our higher mental faculties were born out of the necessity of working with each other in order to survive.
Really found this article inspiring. I wrote a small commentary on it in my journal.
