520 3 _a'We live in a world from which people are disappearing. In our increasingly isolated daily lives, occasions for contact with one another are diminishing, as we rely more and more on technology for everything from food to sex and entertainment. Our dominant cultural theories support this quiet purge of human beings by stressing pure thought and transcendent spirit, and by celebrating images of people as mechanisms....Goldenberg argues that this emptiness...derives from our culture's rejection of the body....Devaluing the body, she says, has impoverished both our thinking and our everyday lives. The need to recognize and restore the presence of real human bodies to contemporary thought is traced in a series of essays, written with elegance and refreshing honesty. Goldenberg explores the dehumanizing force of technology, the sexual comedy of sports, the anti-body, anti-woman stance of traditional religions, C.G. Jung's blindness to his painful childhood, and the limits and dangers of Jungian thought and theory....'. Conclusion
