About This Book

James Hillman proposes the 'acorn theory,' suggesting that each human life is guided by an innate image and calling that precedes birth. Drawing on mythology and biographies of figures such as Ella Fitzgerald and Mohandas Gandhi, the book challenges conventional psychological views of childhood development and environmental determinism.
