Recenzje

"The reader reemerges from these fascinating accounts of psychic, spiritual, and physical journey convinced of the reality of other-worlds--whether they reside in our deep unconscious or in a separate space-- inhabited by animal spirits and allies, gods an ancestors, and convinced too of the need (ours and theirs) to acknowledge and honor them. Unfortunately, it takes a single conversation with a dogmatically rational person to dispel this knowing, for a prevailing spell has been cast upon the lot of us that tethers us to the profane." -- Julie Mayeda The Bloomsbury Review

"These are well-written essays ... Students will enjoy the volume, as will analytical psychologists interested in enriching the practice of modern therapy with elements borrowed from ancient healing traditions." -- Religious Studies Review
