The Farthest Reaches of Inner Space: A Course in Miracles and the Postmodern World

Authenticity and spiritual transcendence are prominent values in our postmodern world. The Farthest Reaches of Inner Space looks at how A Course in Miracles can help us live out these values, embodying the wholeness of our personality and spiritual Self.

From the Preface
So, who might you encounter in The Farthest Reaches of Inner Space? There's an homage to singer Linda Ronstadt in 'On Mystics and Artists'; psychoanalyst Melanie Klein helps me explore envy in 'The Green-Eyed Monster', and the constructive nature of perception in 'Phantasy Island'. Danish philosopher S ren Kierkegaard ponders on the burden of possibility in 'High Anxiety'; political theorist Hannah Arendt makes a timely appearance in 'Vita Activa'; and you'll find references to Carl Jung in many essays: his appreciation for both the rational and the mystical is a rare treasure.

We delve into a fairy tale by Janet Frame reflecting the Dark Night of the Soul in 'The Friday Night World'; Helen Schucman and Bill Thetford - the scribe and co-scribe of the Course respectively - feature in a discussion of liberation in 'Independence Day'; we take a look at the concept of time and its relationship to healing with help from writer Jeanette Winterson in 'End Time', and we meet the Stoics in 'Pandora's Box and the Hope Enigma'.

For readers unfamiliar with A Course in Miracles, key concepts are provided in an appendix, 'A Brief Tour of A Course in Miracles', along with a guide to its reference system and unique definitions of terms such as 'ego', 'Christ', 'sin', 'miracle', and 'forgiveness'.
