Jump Time: Shaping Your Future in a Time of Radical Change
by Jean Houston
Jeremy Tarcher, 2000
ISBN: 1585420328

Jean Houston is co-director of the Foundation for Mind Research and an eminent scholar, philosopher, and teacher. She has written numerous books drawing on thirty-five years of research on human development and exploring ways of developing extraordinary capacities in people and organizations throughout the world.  Houston's most recent book calls for a quantum leap into the future based on dynamic forces that have been building during the previous generation.

Here is Houston at her finest, using colorful allusions from her extensive reading of great literature and fascinating anecdotes from her rich personal experiences in exploring human capacities.  Jump Time suggests how human beings can awaken to their own possibilities, how technology opens people of the world to each other, and how wisdom and spirituality are combining to lead humanity into a more positive future. Houston describes as well the emergence of a global community of shared cultures and ethnicities. This book really stretches the mind to a new dimension.
