The September 2010 issue of the Green Labor Journal, a project of the AFL-CIO’s Center for Green Jobs and the National Labor College, republished the Academy’s article, “The Upcoming Nuclear Peril: Worse than the BP Oil Disaster,” (June 2010) by Rinaldo Brutoco and Madeleine Austin.
The article describes how we are approaching a dangerous tipping point in the global spread of nuclear technology because of a largely out-of-sight worldwide free-for-all among nuclear power companies and their allied national governments to expand their share of the fast-growing nuclear energy international market.
“Cosmic Consciousness: A Journey to Well-being, Happiness and Success,” by Academy Member James A. Cusumano, Ph.D., is now available as a book published by Fortuna Libri in Czech and English, both versions contained in a single volume. The Academy published Cosmic Consciousness in a May 2010 issue of Viewpoint.
Jim draws upon his extensive experience in business, science, and technology, weaving all three into the fundamental fabric of Eastern philosophical thought to demonstrate how to create a more meaningful life. His experience is that a meaningful life is most often based on personal purpose and passion, which invariably leads to success and gratitude, the fundamental basis for happiness and fulfillment.
The book was inspired by a lecture on “true reality” given by global best-selling author, Deepak Chopra, who wrote the preface to Cosmic Consciousness. Jim shows how perception of reality by our five senses is not true reality. He explains in simple terms, the direct link between Eastern philosophy and modern quantum physics and in doing so presents a proven technique for creating your desired reality.
Jim is a former Silicon Valley entrepreneur, a former Exxon research director, the co-author of Freedom from Mid-East oil, and the owner and chairman of Chateau Mcely.
