Elegant in exposition, vast in implication, this groundbreaking work of ecological philosophy compellingly argues the necessity for restoring humanity's lost connections with the sensuous world. Drawing on disciplines as diverse as phenomenology and sleight-of-hand magic, Abram explains how the processes readers think of as "mental" actually derive from a deeply physical interaction with the rest of nature.

Spell of the Sensuous had been recommended to me from more than one source over the past 5 years: first, my maverick writing teacher, Andy Coutureir; later, a bay area entrepreneur whose inspiration comes from vision quest work in the California high desert. It makes accessible and practical some of the most important philosophical concepts of the past century--reading it can restore a felt sense of connection and direct understanding of world-we-live-in. Well written and thoroughly reseached, it is a joy and treasure hunt rolled into one.
