    About this ebook

    Has the world lost its marbles? Well, don’t lose yours! Use the Wheel of Wisdom to ‘Think Full Circle’ and solve any problem a mad world can throw at you!

    Download the free gameboard and use it to create ideas and solve problems. It ‘patterns’ your mind for amazingly clear, balanced whole-brain thinking.

    Take turns to ‘be’ Love and listening, Beauty and creativity, Truth and reasoning, and Freedom and application. You will have new insights into your own natural way of thinking, and a new appreciation of those infuriating types who approach things so differently! Playing Wheel of Wisdom shows how every type is needed for your whole ‘Tree of Life’ - your ‘Eutopia’ or Good Place - to grow and flourish.

    Each player plays one of the four sectors of the Tree and ‘champions’ that particular phase of idea-processing - at three main levels: Physical, Social, and Mental. By focusing on each phase and level in turn, the four champions evolve solutions step by step, together - and open up whole new realms of ideas, possibly beyond their wildest dreams!

    Playing solo or in pairs: the same cycle, just move around the Wheel, taking each role in turn.

    Dare to sit around the Tree of Life, spin the Wheel of Wisdom, and Think Full Circle!

    Peter Harris

    I joined GRID-Arendal as Managing Director in 2014. I am a native of the USA, citizen of Australia and resident of Norway; I describe myself as a “professional foreigner”. I am a graduate of the University of Washington (Seattle USA), completed a PhD at the University of Wales (Swansea UK), married an Australian and have 3 children. I have worked in the field of marine geology and science management for over 30 years and published over 100 scientific papers. I taught marine geology at the University of Sydney and conducted research on UK estuaries, the Great Barrier Reef, the Fly River Delta (Papua New Guinea) and Antarctica. I worked for 20 years for Australia’s national geoscience agency as a scientist and manager. In 2009 I was appointed a member of the group of experts for the United Nations World Ocean Assessment. Apart from managing all of GRID-Arendal’s amazing activities, my interests include new methods for the conduct of environmental assessments (the expert elicitation method) and the use of multivariate statistics and geomorphology to provide tools to manage the global ocean environment. I also enjoy sailing and playing the bagpipes.
