""Sarah D. Norton’s powerful book takes the whole psyche into the existential crisis twenty-first century: the climate catastrophe. By exposing rise of political rage as rooted in unconscious loss and grief, the book provides a map of terrain that we must traverse. For without the exploration of the psychic legacies of colonialism, speciesism, and inequality provided here, real transformation is stuck. Perhaps not surprisingly, Norton shows C. G. Jung as prescient and helpful in unsticking the wheels of change. This book is desperately needed to tell the story of where we are and how to foster necessary forgiveness and hope."" Susan Rowland (PhD), Pacifica Graduate Institute, author with Joel Weishaus of Jungian Arts-Based Research and the Nuclear Enchantment of New Mexico (2021) ""This creative and transdisciplinary addition to the Jung, Politics and Culture series engages with core depth issues concerning the climate crisis. Norton explores the unconscious tendrils of grief that entangle so many people in a stifling sense of doom. From mythology and folktales to economics and activism, we experience a hopeful text that takes an enlivening post-Jungian approach to the imagery, symbolism, psychology and politics of climate change."" Andrew Samuels, Author of The Political Psyche ""Sarah Norton masterfully weaves depth psychology, political analysis, and environmental science together to explore the complex emotional and societal impacts of our climate crisis. With profound insight and compassion, Norton’s transdisciplinary approach offers a unique and vital perspective on one of the most pressing issues of our time. This book is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand and navigate the psychological and universal dimensions of climate change."" Roula-Maria Dib (PhD), Director, London Arts-Based Research Center, Founding Editor, Indelible, author of Jungian Metaphor in Modernist Literature (2020), and poet, Simply Being (2021)
