But Howard Bloom thinks life has been a collective mind from the very beginning. He made the case in his book “Global Brain: The Evolution of Mass Mind From the Big Bang To the 21st Century.” Host Jon Udell speaks with Bloom who reviews the themes of that book — group selectionism, complex adaptive systems, collective learning — and considers what has, and hasn’t, changed since the book was published in 2000.
