Summary: A great book to share
Review: An easy to read, yet compelling work on how various paradigms are manipulated by business, education and our government. The authors Denise Breton and Christopher Largent suggest that we have the power within ourselves to create new paradigms and reclaim our original potentials. A great book to share with those who want to learn more about conspiracy and are open to ways we can transform ourselves.

Summary: Would you rather be comfortable or awake?
Review: Reading this courageous book will change how you see just about everything in our society -- and in yourself. The authors are perceptive and highly educated, passionate and commited. You couldn't ask for better teachers to address this most difficult subject.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An inspiring, grounded perspective of profound truths
Review: The authors have taken dynamic ideas from the minds ofbrilliant scholars, i.e. Thomas Kuhn, and brought them home straightto our hearts and minds. This book engages every part of the reader--making one deeply examine where s/he stands in relation to living one's truth.

As I read it I recognized the complex maze of ideas first introduced in grad school readings which presented how unknowingly we collude with a system of dominance and oppression. Yet in this text of hope, the authors lead us through the puzzle of problems to the endless possibilities and solutions. Solutions which start right here, right now, on an individual basis. The awarenesses this book brings forth can shake the soul at first, but staying with how the authors unfold this mystery ultimately lets us shake off the chains we didn't even know we were bound by.

Definitely worth reading, especially in conjunction with their next book: Love, Soul and Freedom. These outstanding books bring together what a soul thirsts for in a way that quenches far beyond expectation.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book...the publisher is another story...
Review: The content of this book is excellent, wonderfully written, down-to-earth, very readable, eye-opening...I believe everyone who seeks true freedom, should read this book. I would have given it 5 stars, unfortunately the publisher appears to be part of the problem to which the authors refer. One of the messages in this book is that we don't really reach our full potential while being controlled and having our soul stifled. One result being goods and services that are not top quality (money being the most important, not people, not quality)...when I got to page 33 of this book, the pages started falling out. I had to laugh, given the incredible paradox in that and wondered what the authors would think of it. Even considered that it was an additional synchronous message pointing to how this controlling society is presently crumbling. The pages continued to fall out as I read... I decided to write the publisher and see if they would -shift their paradigm- and either send me a new book or refund my money. Yes, I had bought the book month's before from Amazon...but, apparently that's too late for an Amazon refund. The publisher (not surprisingly) said I should contact Amazon. Darn, no paradigm shift there :( Breton/Largent, I loved your book, but please find a new publisher, so other's can actually pass this valuable information on...all in One -peace- :)

Summary: Another 12-step "Bible" for me
Review: The Paradigm Conspiracy is a "Bible"-type systemic 12-step philosophical analytical meditation which I hate to go anywhere without, and can open to any page to receive daily inspiration and hope. This is a thorough open disclosure of the violence of systemic abuse, and without leaving us in the despair of broken dreams, throws light into the tunnel of darkness by outlining the steps that WE, as groups, community-poli-social systems can take to heal[without controlling the outcome],dialoguing new paradigms and meta-paradigms for healthy societies. Assumptions, strategies, responses, and goals, all brilliantly graphed as well as spiralled in the tradition of our ancestral North American and Middle Eastern spiritual masters, esp. Rumi. Appreciating your wonderful truth, Denise and Christopher!

Summary: Inspirational Guide To Transcending Unhealthy Patterns
Review: This book is a brilliant, inspirational guide to recognizing the inherent addictive and destructive nature of many dominant paradigms in our civilization. The authors weave their discourse around the spiritual insights of Rumi and Native American steps to "peace." The authors delineate how paradigms function and protect themselves from the threat of alternative approaches. They also expose the addictive nature of paradigms that dominate modern culture, while offering guidance for those wishing to consciously evolve and transcend the self-limiting, divisive patterns that dominate society. This book is a powerful, enlightened examination of what keeps humanity oppressed, allowing us to reflect on ourselves and the world around us. For those who recognize the flaws in existing patterns and paradigms, this book will resonate and provide insight into how we can individually and collectively develop a progressive, expansive framework for human civilization. I highly recommend this book!
