London book review

In "The Making, The Rise, and the Future of The Speakingman" Dan Mrejeru delves into the evolutionary development of the human brain,

exploring how we became the advanced communicators we are today. This

thought-provoking book challenges our understanding of human evolution

and posits intriguing theories about our future.

Dan Mrejeru, a multi-disciplinary scientist, has dedicated his career to

exploring human evolution. His previous work"; Solovki's Ersatz" marked a

significant milestone in his research. In July 2019, Mrejeru self-published two

more books: "Emergence of Modern Brain and the Buildup of Imaginary

Civilization" and "Augmentation and Illnesses of Civilization. "He released a

second edition on September 15, 2019. Mrejeru has published 96 science

papers on academia.edu, and at prestigious institutions such as La Sorbonne

(Paris, France), Oxford (UK), and the Medical University of Vienna (Austria).

He has over 10,000 views and 1,000 readers on academia.edu. Mrejeru has

written 20 books, three of which have multiple editions. More information can

be found on his website, danmirceamrejeru.com, which has over 550 visitors.

Dan hypothesized that sapiens encountered two cognitive revolutions;

their thinking system turned around 70 ka from a primitive/simple linearity

toward an evolutionary nonlinearity that when it advanced it produced

existential risks, and around 40-30 ka, the sapiens brain produced a

correction redirecting the thinking process toward a gradual advanced

linearity that helped them build our linear civilization. These two cognitive

revolutions also participated in producing a new species manifested 30-23 ka

as the Speakingman.

Another important idea is the extensive documentation offered for the

role of functional "latencies" in human brain, in past triggered by the

revolution of the novel dynamic language, where the "latencies" helped

sapiens and their successors to unveil the "unseen of the reality, while

diminishing the processing speed of the neutral signal. One important idea is

a massive analysis of the role and evolution of "linearization" that is

responsible for "quantifying" all previous "qualities"

The main idea of the book is the first time in literature, when the role of

Geomagnetic event (Geomagnetic excursions, and temporal polarity reversals)

influenced most of biota on this planet, but especially revealed in hominins

and sapiens. They caused evolutions and extinctions.

Mrejeru's interdisciplinary approach combines insights from various

scientific fields, making complex concepts accessible to a general audience.

His vivid descriptions bring the subject matter to life, creating a captivating

narrative. Add "The Making, The Rise, and the Future of The Speakingman" to

your reading list and embark on a journey through the fascinating evolution of

the Speakingman.
