Howard Bloom

Author, Radio Personality

Howard Bloom has been called “next in a lineage of seminal thinkers that includes Newton, Darwin, Einstein, Freud, and Buckminster Fuller” by Britain's Channel4 TV. Bloom is the author of seven books, including The Lucifer Principle: A Scientific Expedition Into the Forces of History and the upcoming Einstein, Michael Jackson & Me. The Office of the Secretary of Defense threw a symposium on Bloom’s second book, Global Brain, and brought in representatives from the State Department, the Energy Department, IBM, and MIT. The eleventh president of India, Dr. A.P.J. Kalam has called that same book “a visionary creation.”
