A Portrait of a Visionary Trans Human and His Work

Born in Israel in 1945, Benjamin Katz fought in two wars, settled in Denmark in 1972, and studied psychology at the University of Copenhagen. He has been practicing as a clinical psychologist since 1980, treating more than thirty thousand clients throughout the years. He is the author of The Green Man in the Orchard, The Fifth Narrative, The Wiser Ascent of Icarus (2004), Global Psychology: Solving Eddie's Dilemma (2008), I, the Reluctant Creator (a novel, 2012), and A Paradigm for a New Civilization (2013). Two aspects attracted his attention in the last twenty years: the deteriorating mental and physical state of human beings adjusting to modern life or rejecting it and the state of the planet that goes from bad to worse. Once he had ?gured out that there are weighty reasons for the mental and physical health decline of so many people, beyond personal and social problems, he found his mission: to de?ne a new paradigm that aims at eliminating these factors and a new global faith aiming to curb human division and stupidity. He went on extending mainstream psychology with politics, lifestyle, economy, demography, ecology, and evolving further beyond Homo sapiens on a global scale. He added to it other crucial aspects of our well-being, such as the elimination of modern life's stressors, the deterioration of global ecology, consumerism as a lifestyle, unsustainable global economy and demography, and even unsustainable spirituality. In this book, he designed a system with both new faith and strategic steps aiming at our further evolvement in order to reach the utmost meaning with intelligent life like us.
