<i>The Evolving Mind</i>, written by practicing Buddhist and biologist Robin Cooper, looks at the question of the how life progressed over time through biological and eventually cultural evolution to yet more refined types of evolution involving the mind and consciousness. Specfically, the author draws on four concepts of evolution: biological, mental, cultural, and "higher" evolution. Buddhist practices, the author suggests, including practice ofthe Bodhisattva ideal and a range of meditative techniques that help develop the mind offer an avenue toward higher evolution.
