The essays indicate our sense of self is constantly evolving, and ancient naming traditions can provide a guide for the fractured self of the 21st century. References in print and online are provided to diverse topics, including psychology, race, religion, history, and even the esoteric, reflected in the 21st century through a scientific lens, so women can pursue their personal interests to enrich, and even heal, their own sense of self. The essays help bridge ethnic and religious divides by increasing understanding, emphasizing compassion, and our common humanity.
