<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Explores the human being and social life, the individual and community, based on König's own experiences in building up Camphill communities.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In these lectures König explores the human being and social life, the individual and community, from an imaginative and often radical perspective. These explorations range majestically from masks and archetypal images, the threefold constitution in man and woman, the karma of vocation, and the fundamental social law, to the place of work, religion and culture within the threefold social organism, and karma and reincarnation.</p> <p>These lectures arose from Karl König's experiences in building up Camphill Communities with extraordinary people with special needs. They are important both for the work in Camphill, as well as more broadly in the field of social therapy and beyond. </p> <p>This is a revised and expanded edition of the Village Conference Lectures of Karl König, previously published as <em>In Need of Special Understanding</em>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'His lectures are easily accesible... I found them inspiring containing advice that can be lived with, discussed and practised immediately.'<br />- Camphill Correspondence</p> <p>'König's insights in human development ought to be essential reading for all those working in education, healthcare and care, whether special needs or other, such as raising a family. He deserves to be read much more widely... Serious, yet very accessible; a work not just for Camphill.'<br />- New View</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Karl König (1902-66) was well-known as a physician, author and lecturer.
