Publisher Description
What does it mean to be a woman? What is the pathway to mature femininity? And what of the masculine components of a woman's personality? Robert A. Johnson explores these questions in this new edition of She, updated to reflect the growth of his thinking on these subjects.
Many writers and scholars have long considered that the ancient myth of Amor and Psyche is really the story of a woman's task of becoming whole, complete, and individuated. Here, examining this ancient story in depth and lightening up the details, Johnson has produced an arresting and perceptive exploration of what it means to become a woman. You will not listen to this book without understanding the important women in your life and a good deal more about yourself as a woman.

Vague and Unsupported
Vague generalizations that the author does not attempt to support. I like myth, but basing the whole thing on one myth without arguing for your interpretation is too much. Myths contradict each other, so if you aren’t going to look at other myths, at least anticipate alternate interpretations of the one you cover. Or any other conflicting ideas at all.
