Summary: simple concepts presented as being complex
Comment: While studying this book, I wondered why I couldn't seem to "get it". I persisted because of the seduction of the subtitle, The Role of Attention in Spiritual Life. Were John G. Bennett's concepts too academic for me? Or were simple concepts presented as being complex? Then I shifted gears and looked at the chapter headings from my feminine relationship oriented perspective. It seems clear that the goals pursued in the chapters on sensitivity, consciousness, decision and creativity are required for conscious caring. HOW WE DO THINGS matters if a person intentionally nutures another, whether a plant, a pet, a child, a partner, a friend, a parent, or the rest of the planet and its population. Don't women practice all their lives what Bennett presents as news? Nevertheless, this collection of Bennett's ideas, based on lectures given in the 1950's and 60's, plus the cover illustration, Burrowing Skink Dreaming at Parrikirlangu, will probably lure me back for a second or third reading. This 3rd Edition of the 1974 publication is currently out of print.
