Ken Wilber has emerged as a leading contemporary thinker and theoretical psychologist. The most remarkable features of his work are the extraordinary scope and integrative capacity of his multidisciplinary syntheses, which span psychology, philosophy, sociology, anthropology and religion. The result is a coherent, comprehensive worldview for which this article provides a brief introduction.
