The Power of Then

The Power of Then applies the teachings of sages of the past and the lessons of their lives to the everyday problems - emotional, mental and spiritual - that continue to beset us. From the earthy example of the medieval housewife Margery Kempe (patron saint of the midlife crisis) to the original insights of the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, James Bremner unlocks the wisdom of the past and applies it to the present. Written in a clear, engaging and personal style, the book is full of helpful guidance, encouragement and reflection, garnered from some of the greatest sages the world has known.
