Morris Berman is well known as an innovative cultural historian and social critic. He has taught at a number of universities in Europe & North America, and has held visiting endowed chairs at Incarnate Word College (San Antonio), the University of New Mexico, and Weber State University. Berman won the Governor’s Writers Award for Washington State in 1990 & the Rollo May Center Grant for Humanistic Studies in 1992. He has written a trilogy on the evolution of human consciousness– “The Reenchantment of the World” (1981), “Coming to Our Senses” (1989), and “Wandering God: A Study in Nomadic Spirituality”. His 2000 “Twilight of American Culture” was followed by “Dark Ages America”- a despairing, convincing exploration into contemporary America and her future prospects.
