'...considers how we are all governed by the presence of invisible forms--spirits, ghosts, ancestral and parental influences, inner voices, dreams, impulses, untold stories, complexes, synchronicities, and mysteries--which move through us and through history. He offers a way to understand them psychologically, examining the persistence of the past influencing our present, conscious lives and noting that engagement with mystery is what life asks of each of us.'
