You might take a look at Glosa.  It has many of the qualities you
describe.  Unfortunately, it's a blue-bitch to learn online, since for
some reason they keep the 6000 word dictionary a secret.  *rolls eyes*
There is a 2000 word dictionary, though, that works sufficiently to give
you a base vocabulary; I send messages to a friend in Glosa quite
frequently, discussing everything from Shamanic techniques of the !kung to
the relative values of poetry and science.

The grammar's extremely simple -- absolutely isolating.  Took me about an
hour to learn to read it with the help of a dictionary.  The vocabulary
consists of Greek and Latin roots; quite easy to learn.

Will it be a uniting force for world peace?  Heh.  Mi ridi.  (I laugh)
il ne es u lingua qi pote krea u no-guera.  (There is no language that can
create peace)  Sed mi amo u Glosa.  (But I like Glosa)
