Dawn of the Life

This project is a combination of two other works, viz. 'The Transcendental Future' (1980), and 'The Way of Evolution' (1981), and therefore dates from 1980-81, a time when John O'Loughlin had just turned away from the Spenglerian historicism of what had preceded it towards a more optimistic outlook on life or, at any rate, on the prospect of evolutionary progress based around an orientation towards, in de Chardinesque terminology, the omega-point of things, which he has identified with transcendentalism. - A Centretruths editorial
