Reseña del editor:

A powerful and contemporary look at our lives, for people who know that psychotherapy doesn’t hold all the answers. For many people religion and spirituality have become something optional, an activity to do if they have time. James W. Jones shows that they are not choices, that meaning and purpose are central to human development. Without them we will remain unhappy and confused by life.

This gentle and inspirational book will appeal to anyone looking for another way of being.

Contraportada:

It is becoming clear that psychology does not have all the answers and that people have a basic need for some connection with their spirit of soul. This can be through contact with nature, finding your true path in life, meeting a person with whom you can have true intimacy, and many other means.

In this groundbreaking book James W. Jones explores that need to connect – with our true selves and with others – and find meaning in our lives. This is the essential longing of the human heart. Satisfying this fundamental longing for meaning, intimacy and connection is vital to our happiness and well-being. Through illuminating, real-life case histories and wise observations, Jones reveals the factor that keeps us from intimacy and from spiritual experience, and explores provocative ways of rediscovering both.

"Mr Jones weaves a spiritual parable for our times"
DANIEL GOLEMAN, 'New York Times'

"This book rests on a simple but profound truth: Spiritual meaning is vital to human life. This is an important example of the emerging dialogue between science and spirituality, psychology and religion. It will help restore meaning and purpose to anyone who reads it."
LARRY DOSSEY, MD, author of 'Healing Words'
