Release Date: 1999
In an accessible style and readable prose, Barbara Weir Huber explores the myth of Psyche, interweaving research from diverse disciplines such as current feminist and educational theories, mythology, literature, psychology, and cultural anthropology. She offers an original, critical reinterpretation of the myth, highlighting the way it overtly portrays female experience in a patriarchal context while covertly affirming all aspects of female life.
Psyche's Task
According to Frazer, superstition may have been responsible for some terrible misunderstandings and even worse misdeeds, but in lending strength to the core institutions of government, private property, marriage, and respect for human life, superstition has played an invaluable role in the increased civility of man. "Surely it is better," he asserts, "that men should do right from wrong motives than that they should do wrong with the best intentions." A treat for students of history and social anthropology, Psyche's Task is a lively, informative defense from the author of the influential The Golden Bough. Scottish anthropologist SIR JAMES GEORGE FRAZER (1854-1941) also wrote Man, God, and Immortality (1927) and Creation and Evolution in Primitive Cosmogonies (1935).
The Psychology of Remote Viewing
While researching the unity of the collective unconscious, Carl Jung discovered that it performs two important functions: (1) the congruence of individual symbols and mythologies and (2) the phenomena of extra-sensory perception. (CW 16, par. 254) In his first book, Jung & Remote Viewing, Dr. David Shaver addressed Carl Jung's concept of synchronicity to reveal how extra-sensory perception arises from the interaction of mind and matter. Now, in The Psychology of Remote Viewing, Dr. Shaver explores the development of consciousness by revealing how extra-sensory information transfers from the unconscious into conscious awareness. Beginning with the structure of the mind, and highlighting the different ways the conscious and unconscious minds function, The Psychology of Remote Viewing draws upon insights from psychoanalysis, philosophy, and art to provide a psychologically comprehensive overview of the remote viewing process.
