A:~1erican scientist, v. 43, Oct. 1955: 595-610. Assuming life to exist on other planets of the billion solar systems now thought to comprise the known universe, the author says the next easy step is to assume that our own evolution here on earth has been paralleled elsewhere. Buck, Richard M. Cosmic consciousness. New York, E. P. Dutton and Co., 1901. 384 p. Evidence is presented that there have been, in the last three thousand years of human history, at least fourteen undeniable cases of complete and permanent "illumination, " and that in addition to these, there have been many instances of riartial, temporary, or doubtful "illumination, " several of which have occurred ctu~ing the past century. Noting the inrreasing frequency of the experience, th'.' author deduces that very gradually -- and, sporadically -- the human race is in the process of dC!veloping a new kmd of consciousness, far in advance of ordi- nary human self-consciousness.
