“Crisis Codes is one of the deepest and most thoughtful books I’ve ever read. Unlike techno-optimist narratives that promise salvation through technology, this book acknowledges collapse as a necessary evolutionary step. It builds a brilliant case that focuses on consciousness — I haven’t read anything like it before. The author has written something really special.”

Core Thesis

The Growth Imperative phase (1700s to 2000s) is humanity’s necessary passage through apparent crisis from Material toward Mycelial Consciousness — the next of five Major Evolutionary Transitions. Crisis Codes reveals how our deepest fears about ecological and existential collapse are actually evolutionary signals, transforming despair into the recognition of emerging superpowers that reconnect us with Earth’s living intelligence. The book provides practical ways of entrepreneurship during a necessarily disruptive period.
