About the book
Often disparaged, seldom understood, the aggressive energy of the male psyche's inner Warrior is explored in this ground-breaking work. Though driven underground by a feminist generation, the Warrior's energy is being consciously reclaimed by members of the men's movement. Jungian psychoanalyst Robert Moore, who numbers with Robert Bly as a cofounder of the movement, joins with mythologist Douglas Gillette in this examination of the inner Warrior. In the Warrior's aggressive energy, men discover their drive for daily life, career, and social contact. Perseverance and fidelity are products of the Warrior's determination. With a growing sense of what masculinity entails, many men are today recovering their birthright Warrior energy, empowering themselves, and offering a plan for personal empowerment to others. Today's male warriors are pledging their loyalty to metapersonal concerns: their workplaces, communities, and families.
