Recently, I read this interview of Ken Wilber and found it fascinating. If you have a philosophical inclination, I highly recommend considering it.
Wilber is the founder of integral theory, which is his attempt to make sense of our disparate bodies of knowledge. With integral theory, he offers a model about how many fields, from physics to biology to psychology and spirituality, relate and have meaning for our lives. This appeals to me. So I read a primer on his theory The Integral Vision. Now I'm reading Sex, Ecology, Spirituality: the Spirit of Evolution, which is an exhaustive examination of this subject. Maybe you'd like this, too.

I was first introduced to Wilber's work while finishing my undergrad at the CA Institute of Integral Studies. His work--and that of others in the field--formed the foundation for much of the curriculum.
Later, he showed up again in a number of discourses in seminary (another CA school). Once I crossed the state line, I didn't tend to run into people who'd ever heard of him.
My closest friend is a huge "fan" -- reading him, teaching him (in FL) and corresponding with him pretty regularly. If you ever think it would be worthwhile, I'll be happy to introduce you to her.
