Dream of the Universe: In Search of the Soul (Set of 2 Books)

The monumental work by Ann Baring, which took twenty years to complete, rightfully became one of the major literary events of its time. This brilliant, profound, and truly epoch-making research addresses the genuine roots of the deep dissonance that has occurred in all areas of our society — spiritual, psychological, ecological, social, political, and economic.
Ann Baring's book explores the root causes of the all-encompassing transformation that Western civilization is experiencing today. The author shows that modern problems (from economic instability to environmental threats and social disintegration) have their origins in centuries of denial of the spiritual foundations of life and the neglect of the feminine nature in culture.
Unlike most studies focused solely on economic symptoms, this work offers a radically new perspective.
Baring argues that to find a way out of this deadlock, it is necessary to restore the lost balance between the rational and the spiritual, the masculine and the feminine principles.
This work is not just an analysis but also a guide to action. The book will be useful to anyone seeking to understand the roots of the global crisis of Western culture and find paths to its revival.
