Abstract: '...follows two very different women to demonstrate the interweaving of woman's inner experience with activities in the world outside herself. We see how every woman can learn to recognize the clues by which the invisible world--a world that encompasses ideals, values, and most of all, the mysteries of the not-yet-known or the unknowable--reveals itself to human understanding through dreams and fantasy, visionary experiences, human interactions, and the depths of solitude. Singer reveals how the invisible world is viewed objectively by the physical and biological sciences, traditional and Gnostic spiritual disciplines, and the psychology of the unconscious. She then suggests how to integrate the visible and invisible in our lives to recover a sense of wholeness and find creative answers to personal and global problems.'
