Henry David Thoreau: Cycles and Psyche

"Elegantly written and filled with surprising insights. Dr. Sperber's book adds a new chapter to our understanding of Thoreau. For those like myself, who have a knee-jerk reaction against psychological reductionism, be reassured – it is this doctor's erudition that makes this medicine go down." Alan A. Stone Touroff-Glueck Professor of Law and Psychiatry, Harvard University Co-editor, The Abnormal Personality Through Literature
