Description

Jungian analyst Robert Moore and mythologist Douglas Gillette combine in this book that attempts to break the code on the structure of the mature masculine personality. Examining the four mature archtypes: the King (energy of creative ordering), the Warrior (energy of non-violent aggressive action), the Magician (energy of initiation and transformation) and the Lover (energy to connect men to others and the world). The authors argue that a man's failure or success in life depends on achieving access to the archetypal energies.

Reviews

"The authors take on the difficult task of separating man from boy by excavating 'psychological facts' from ancient myths and modern movies"--Michael J. Meade "An exciting view of masculinity, one rooted not in domination but in creativity and empowerment of the self and others."--New Age Journal "A map for men...[Moore and Gillette] are handing men concrete images and explicit ways of thinking and being, ways to mature and still remain fully masculine."--Chicago Sun-Times "A liberating guide to self-transformation."--Publishers Weekly
