Brian Swimme received his Ph.D. (1978)
from the University of Oregon in gravitational
dynamics. His research focuses on the evolutionary
dynamics of the universe, the relationship
between scientific cosmology and more traditional
religious visions, the cultural implications
of the new evolutionary epic, and the role
of humanity in the unfolding story of Earth
and cosmos. In 1998 he founded the international
Epic of Evolution Society, a forum for artists,
scientists, ecofeminists, ecologists, religious
thinkers and educators interested in the
new story. He is the author of The Hidden
Heart of the Cosmos (Orbis, 1996), Manifesto
for a Global Civilization (with Matthew
Fox) (Bear and Company, 1983), The Universe
is a Green Dragon (Bear and Company,
1984) and The Universe Story (Harper,
1992) which is a culmination of a ten-year
collaboration with cultural historian Thomas
Berry. Brian's media work includes the video
series, Canticle to the Cosmos and The Hidden
Heart of the Cosmos.
