5.0 out of 5 stars An exceptionally good book, January 22, 2000

By 

Teresa Ali-Olivas - See all my reviews

This review is from: Femininity Lost and Regained (Paperback)

There are so many great quotes in the book, here is one of many, "Be it a domestic quarrel or an international incident, the subject is often that of price. It is a flaw in a man--fatal unless he wakens to it--that he carefully arranges life so that the feminine will pay the price for his masculine creation." (p 44).

Very much worth reading if you feel that maybe there has been/is an imbalance of justice regarding men and women.

This review is from: Femininity Lost and Regained (Paperback)

R.A. Johnson deserves the title "National Therapist". All of his books speak to not only individual but also national emotional wounds and this present book deals with arguably the most dire wound - loss of contact with
our female side. I highly recommend this book - together with all of his others. However, the healing of the wounds Mr. Johnson points to requires a process working with others over time which a book can be only the beginning of.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, January 22, 2000

By 

Teresa Ali-Olivas - See all my reviews

This review is from: Femininity lost and regained (Hardcover)

The book challenges many male conceptions. I love his quote of Creon, "Go then, and share your love among the dead, We'll have no woman's law here, while I live." This in response to Antigon's, "My way is to share my love, not share my hate."

The book is helpful in understanding the male/female situation (in as much as it can possibly be understood!).
