I agree with Steve. Not only is Wilber shackled by SOM but, not 
surprisingly, he has precious little to say about values except vegetables 
don't scream. But, Wilber's revelations about the shortcomings of the 
scientific worldview are enlightening to those who have been taught that 
science is the road to salvation.
