Moore and Gillette clearly define the four mature male archetypes that stand out through myth and literature across history: the king (the energy of just and creative ordering), the warrior (the energy of aggressive but nonviolent action), the magician (the energy of initiation and transformation), and the lover (the energy that connects one to others and the world), as well as the four immature patterns that interfere with masculine potential (divine child, oedipal child, trickster and hero). <em>King, Warrior, Magician, Lover</em> is an exploratory journey that will help men and women reimagine and deepen their understanding of the masculine psyche. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The bestselling, widely heralded, jungian introduction to the psychological foundation of a mature, authentic, and revitalized masculinity.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An exciting view of masculinity, one rooted not in domination but in creativity and empowerment of the self and others."--<strong><em>New Age Journal </em></strong><br><br>"A liberating guide to self-transformation."--<strong><em>Publishers Weekly</em></strong><br><br>"A map for men...[Moore and Gillette] are handing men concrete images and explicit ways of thinking and being, ways to mature and still remain fully masculine."--<strong><em>Chicago Sun-Times</em></strong><br><br>"The authors take on the difficult task of separating man from boy by excavating 'psychological facts' from ancient myths and modern movies"--<strong>Michael J.
