Midlife = crisis, anger, & change...So pervasive has the general awareness of this phenomenon of midlife crisis and transformation become that as we approach this time of life we almost automatically begin to brace for a psychological emergency. Drawing on analytic experience, dreams, and myths, Murray Stein, a well-known analyst, formulates the three main features of the middle passage. First an erosion of attachments. Then hints of a fresh spirit, renegade and mischievous, that scoffs at routines. This new spirit disrupts life and alarms family and friends. Finally, with luck, a transformation occurs; life begins again.

Dr. Stein has written a best-selling, good-humored book, brimming with shrewd counsel and cultural relevance.

Contents:

Chapter 1: Hermes, Guide of Souls through Liminality

Chapter 2: Burying the Dead: The Entry into the Midlife Transition

Chapter 3: Liminality and the Soul

Chapter 4: The Return of the Repressed during Midlife Liminality

Chapter 5: The Lure to Soul-Mating in Midlife Liminality

Chapter 6: Through the Region of Hades: A Steep Descent in Midlife's Liminality

Chapter 7: On the Road of Life after Midlife

If you are going through midlife issues, this is the Jungian perspective to help you. The typesetting, printing and book design is crap, but the message is worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A terrific book for anyone going through any kind of transition at any stage of life!

Murray Stein does an excellent job of clarifying why major transitions in life are so difficult, with special attention given to changes in midlife and how this transition is unique. As a therapist, I found this book very helpful, and will also recommend it to clients dealing with this challenging period of change.
