The New Gullivers: Shaping the Mindscapes, Soulscapes, and Landscapes of a New World

by Stephen Banick

Summary

Davy Jones' Locker . Aladdin's Lamp . The Grand "Bizarre". what if all these adventures were just waiting for you to stumble upon in some as yet unexplored land far away - or maybe right in your own back yard? In The New Gullivers, seasoned traveler, commentator and entrepreneur Stephen Banick cleverly bridges past and present by encouraging us to become "New Gullivers" - committed explorers of the "New World," the Age of Globalization. True travel, Banick tells us, is much more than hop-scotching over the latitudes and longitudes of Landscapes; it also requires navigating the contours of Mindscapes and Soulscapes. Banick whets the reader's appetite for a whole feast of ambitious inner and outer opportunities for expanding our mental, physical and spiritual horizons. In a world ever-more defined by colliding tectonic plates and crashing tsunami waves, he appeals to the secret desire of "Everyman" to Feel better, Have more, and Be more. States "The gullibility of the original Gulliver won't serve us in this New World. Still, those dragons on the horizon often turn out to be mirages - even, friends." In this first of seven cleverly wrought books that comprise an introduction to The Gulliver Project, Banick & Co. will be there to make sure you've packed your duffle bags with everything you'll need. Like Archimedes, he challenges us to "lift the world" by first changing ourselves; and he remind us that we have everything we need to make this daunting age "The Best of Times."
