Description: Near Fine in Very Good+ jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. Copy has minor rubbing on the very tips of corners, dj has rubbing. Pioneering the men's movement, Jungian analyst Moore, who often lectures with Robert Bly at men's conferences, and Gillette have broken the code to the structures of the nature of masculine personality. They argue convincingly that mature masculinity is not abrasive, domineering, or grandiose, but generative, creative, and empowering of the self and others. Here they ... read more
"althouh inspiring i found it borign at times and over analytical in an area im increaingly seeing no need for science or infact an area better without."
"A problem identified and addressed in this book, that boys now are growing into big boys instead of Men, is addressed on the detailed individual level more than the social level, even though the book acknowledges that the transition from boy to Man when executed correctly does not occur without help from elders. Most of the book is devoted to the four archetypes with lots of examples of how they appear in Men (a healthy state) and how their malignant forms appear in old boys. An introspective, reflective reader might get some valuable insights about himself, insights about both his strengths and weaknesses. Some exercises are offered at the end, too, for applying the theory. I don't know whether the authors are right, but I think their ideas are plausible."
"This book is not just for fans of thing Jungian. It is a valuable and very accessible exploration of male psychology (although much that is said would apply equally to women). I have used this with many clients in the consulting business and almost without exception they have found it both useful and enlightening. We all have four energies or aspects, according to Moor, our King, Warrior, Magician and Lover tendencies. We often operate within these four quadrants by excess (the bully - too much warrior for example) or by lack (the weakling who abdicates responsibility - too little king). Once you begin to get the four energies clear in your mind you can see them operating almost universally, with friends, politicians, celebrities and so on."
