Summary: A Classic
Comment: The following is an author bio "Sylvia Brinton Perera is a Jungian analyst who lives, practices, teaches, and writes in New York and Vermont. She was trained as an art historian and worked as a museum curator. Her work in the Civil Rights movement in America and with disadvantaged children led her to study psychology at the New School in New York City, where she received an M.A. She also is a graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute in New York, where she has taught analysts in training for twenty years. She lectures throughout the U.S. and Europe, and annually leads groups to Ireland to study the relevance of Celtic mythology to clinical practice."

Summary: The Deep and True Feminine
Comment: As an astrologer, Jungian and VisionCoach, I often recommend this book to my clients as a healing journey. It is probably necessary to have a little Jungian and mythological background to enjoy this particular approach to the universal truth of the female. The style is elevated and uses language familiar to Jungian analysts.

You cannot imagine what you will find in this book, though -- it is so different from Women's Lib and and the generalized Greek and Roman myths, for example.

Perera discusses the bi-polar nature of women and mythically describes their arrival to Power and The Deep Feminine.

If you are serious about your path of development on the female side, I can't think of a more worthwhile book.

Summary: Essential Reading for Therapists Treating Depression
Comment: As a therapist (12 yrs), I have been using the material in this book for reframing the experience of depression for my clients. The clients I have introduced this book to are now reframing their illness as an intiation into a greater understanding of their relation to self/soul. While at times dry for most laypeople, It has become a reference book for my practice.
