This We Know: New Knowledge for a New Era (The New Era Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Tom Evans (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars (46)
This We Know is a book about knowing, what it means to know and what we don't know. It is an exploration too of what sort of world we could all know and how we might get there.

This We Know is also proof that a book does not have to be a big book to be a BIG BOOK.

It was written and published in just two weeks which is proof too that writing a book does not have to take a long time either. It was written to be read in one sitting, or on a single commute. Its message may stay with you a while longer.

The book is aimed at readers aged from 9 to 120 years old. One twelve year old boy even described the book as "mind bobbling". This says it all. Be prepared to have your mind 'bobbled'.

The Postscript will both blow and open your mind. You will want to live on the planet it describes. This is handy as you are already on it - it's called Spaceship Earth.

This book is a purposely short exploration into what we know, what we don't know and how we can open up the floodgates to acquiring even more knowledge.

We don't give our knowledge a second thought yet some of us would bet considerable amounts of money on what we know. We are proud of our retention of facts. Pub quizzes and TV quiz shows thrive on this seemingly basic desire.

We would swear on a bible that the Sun will set and rise each day. In fact, the Sun stays relatively static as the Earth rotates on its axis giving the illusion of sunset and sunrise.

We know, for a fact, that we know more things than our predecessors. By inference, our descendants will know more than us yet again. In a hundred years time, they may even smile lovingly at our innocence and naivety.

Knowing there is an infinity of things yet to know is one of the key tenets of our knowledge.

Without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, humanity can evolve from its current state into a very bright future indeed.

This We Know.

Tom Evans

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Tom is an ex-BBC television engineer turned author.

In his mid-40s, he wrote a book by accident and, before he knew it, became and author's mentor specialising in clearing writer's blocks and teaching writers how to tap into unlimited creativity.

He has now morphed into an internationally renowned meditation guide on the back of the meditations that accompanied his books.

In this new decade, Töm Evans, the author of fiction is emerging, augmented by ambient music inspired by his books.

His writing is aimed at exploring what makes us creative (and what stops it). As a result, his area of research has taken him down the route of researching the esoteric and other worldly as well as cutting edge scientific thinking and research.

His aim is to take the esoteric (the occult, obscure and hidden), to demystify it and make it exoteric (known and understood). He is an engaging speaker and works both 1-2-1 with authors and in group workshop.

Tom comes with a big caveat - people who read his books find all sorts of magic starting to emerge in their lives.

    Tom Evans bends minds like he bends time ... What I love about this book is how it takes us on a journey, offering so many different paths for the mind to take before coming back to the course of his narrative. Where we end up could not have been predicted at the start, as is true for all great journeys in life.

    One of the books I always keep on my nightstand, as every time I read in it - it helps me find new "doorways" in my own mind.
    Tom Evans insight, and his wonderful way with words, is always an inspiration to me - and a source of wisdom, which I use on a daily basis in my work as a Life Coach.
    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

    I'm sorry, I know that the kindle edition was only 99 cents but if this was fiction it would be a short story. I was just starting to get into it and it ended. I don't see why all the other reviewers gush about it, nothing really revolutionary here and reading it took less than an hour...

    Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2012
    Format: Kindle
    I have just finished reading This We Know by Tom Evans. I really enjoyed the way Tom put the facts of what exists already, in with what we can co-create. Tom has a unique way of bringing what some people may perceive as "dreams" into reality by waking the reader up to see the bigger picture. This book would resonate with anyone who is aware enough to see that it is up to us. This We Know definitely stimulates the grey matter by linking into both of logical and the creative. I really enjoyed this little book as it got over some essential elements of the human condition as well as emphasizing the human potential. Pure brilliance The Silver Lining

    4.0 out of 5 stars Short, elegant and perfectly formed
    Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2013
    Format: Kindle
    This We Know is short, elegant and perfectly formed. It asks two simple questions, what do we know and what don't we know? It is thought provoking and enticing in that simplicity and provides the reader with a chance to 'get out of their own brain' for a while to think about some of the bigger questions in life.

    On the whole it offers facts and a different perspective with which to both consider and understand them. However, a few points he offers are simply one man's opinion, and given that the rest of the book is so well structured, they could cause some readers to feel that the whole is no longer viable.

    If you can look past these though and see the bigger picture that Tom is trying to present, you will almost certainly find yourself with a head full of different thoughts that could just be the catalyst you need to ignite action.short, elegant and perfectly formed

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 22, 2013

    As an avid reader of personal development, spiritual and 'different' books, I was particularly drawn to this book. I am very much of the opinion, that the more we learn, the more we realise how much more there is to learn, which for me makes life so exciting. So many of us are happy to let life pass us by, without putting our head up and seeing what is going on all around us. Tom's book does that for us in a simple, focussed yet thought provoking way.

    It s also a 'join the dots' type of book as well. By that I mean that as each of the points are raised you start to see a pattern emerge, that we are all interconnected, in fact everything is connected.

    It leaves you with that 'why not' feeling, and that maybe there are other agendas at work, which means that what should be done, logically and morally, is not done.

    Finally, it will leave you asking more questions, of yourself and of others.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Mind opening, questioning and thought challenging read. A Must.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 23, 2012
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    According to Google's advanced algorithms, there is nearly 130 million books, or 129,864,880, to be exact in publication.

    This we know.

    However google's count was prior to the release of "this we know" by Tom Evans, which means google has not counted one influential and thought challenging books of the modern day. Tom looks at knowledge. Knowledge is power. Perhaps what has more power though lies within what we don't know. Tom challenges what we don't know vs what we do know and as he writes his way through the "what if we did know" questions challenges "what we do know" making the reader think differently and explore what we don't know as in what we don't yet know.......and in thinking this way there are suddenly so many possible scenarios. It took me 20 minutes to read this little book. Currently that's one eigth of the time I've subsequently been thinking about the content of the book which no doubt I will re read as I challenge my thinking of what I don't know. Is changing the world as simple as all of us really changing our thinking? Can world harmony, or multiuniversal peace be achieved because 7 billion people simply "changed their mind". Possibly. This we don't yet know, but it would be good to try.

    I have read many books about the meaning of life and how, why, what we are here for. Yet, Tom's book "This We Know", is in a category of its own. I am astounded by the sheer vastness of the world as we know it and Tom's ability to expand my thinking yet at the same time makes me go within myself and ponder "what if that really did happen"...can you imagine how different our world would be "...if that money (annual military spend globally) was spent not keeping the peace but creating the peace..." (p.35)For me, its Tom's choice of words "creating the peace" which get me thinking--how do you "create peace". He didnt say "No more war" but "create peace", which expands my thinking. Although "This We Know" is a small book, I am taken on a journey in the land of probabilities and creativity. A delight to read and sow seeds for a brighter future. Thanks Tom

    The power behind this book is far more than the written message it conveys, the experience of reading this book has yet again been a personally developing journey, as I have experienced with the most recent of Toms books. This book can be read quickly but that isn't the point, it's the time taken over what this now means in regards to how you move forward and progress your life that matters. So this book took me a short time to read but will take me a life time to live it's message. Life changing if you let it be so, Tom asks us to imagine what might happen, and I am...

    5.0 out of 5 stars This we know... take a moment to notice.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 22, 2012
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    A small book with a huge impact - it made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. Take 30 minutes out of your life to stop and read this book. Tom takes a myriad of facts and sprinkles them throughout the book in such a way that each is able to resonate within you and light up the energetic sparks that provoke deep thought and connect you to all that is. It affirms that we are not separate and both entices and challenges the reader to look both inside and outside of themselves and notice in that very moment where they fit in the big picture. I recommend this look to anyone who feels disconnected in their frantic dash through life. May Tom's words resonate within you and open your eyes and heart to who you are and where you are going on your journey.
