Cognitive Engineering (Hardback or Cased Book)

The Genetic Age

A new epoch in human history is dawning. The human race is standing at the threshold of a Genetic Age. Genetic engineering can enhance cognitive faculties such as mental acuity, awareness and intelligence, and physical attributes such as appearance, strength, and agility.

The previously-unfathomable mechanisms of gene interaction have been penetrated by a revolutionary laboratory technique called CRISPR. This development is a monumental landmark in the history of biological research. Its impact on human civilization is being compared to the steam engine, which gave rise to the Industrial Revolution, and the transistor, which spawned the Information Age.

The opportunity to lift the human race into universal self-awareness represents a defining moment in the progress of civilization. Genetic upgrades for higher consciousness are feasible with current technology and development is underway.

Cognitive Capital

We are witnessing the emergence of a new kind of wealth - genetic capital. This new form of capital will create value in a myriad of applications across agriculture, energy, health and industry, but perhaps its greatest potential for value creation lies in cognitive capital.

Defined as the measure of an individual's free, unbound conscious awareness in present time, cognitive capital is the source of all cognitive talents including creativity, focus, compassion, motivation and mental acuity.

The world today is shifting into a knowledge economy where cognitive capital is the prime currency. In the 21st Century, the ability to marshal this precious resource for creative problem solving will determine the economic mobility of individuals and the wealth of nations.

Technology Trends

New research has revealed vast reserves of human cognitive potential buried beneath layers of unconscious memories, thoughts and behavior programs. A revolutionary technology for unlocking this potential to generate stable expanded states of awareness, called cognitive engineering, has arisen at the confluence of two new branches of science, cognitive physics and genetic engineering.

Cognitive physics reveals seminal new discoveries about the nature of awareness and its interactions with human neurology. These insights yield genetic engineering strategies for optimizing the brain's neurological substrates for cognition.

Societies, groups and nations which embrace this disruptive new technology can harness its vast potential to drive exponential growth in cognitive capital.

J. L. Mee directs the research and development activities of Cognitive Genetics Institute. Mr. Mee is an expert in high-tech research and development and transforming complex visions into viable products and services. Mr. Mee has had a rare opportunity to study the spirit / brain interface from an electrical engineering perspective for four decades. Just prior to entering his chosen field of computer systems design at age 20, Mr. Mee had a six hour out-of-body experience during meditation. Over the next forty years, he combined the first-hand spiritual knowledge gained from this experience with sophisticated computer design principles to develop a new understanding of how spiritual beings interface to neural networks in the brain. The result is the foundation for an effective science for consciousness engineering. Mr. Mee is one of the architects of the Information Age. During his career, he worked at the very highest echelons in the computer industry, and had management responsibility for evolving large computer architecture into the massive, microprocessor-driven parallelism at the heart of today's machines. He directed major computer systems R&D programs for IBM's largest competitor, where he secured $400 million in investment funding and managed 20 advanced R&D programs. These programs resulted in 13 U.S. patents and $5 billion worth of large systems computer products, which were manufactured in a one million square foot facility and shipped all over the world. He is the youngest father of a mainframe, having managed the engineering development of a leading-edge, high-tech large computer system.
