About
"The two thought-provoking, extended essays that make up Stories We Tell Ourselves draw from the author's richly diverse experiences and history, taking the reader on a deeply pleasurable walk to several unexpectedly profound destinations. A steady accumulation of fascinating science, psychoanalytic theory, and cultural history--ranging as far and wide as neuro-ophthalmology, ancient dream interpretation, and the essential differences between Jung and Freud--is smoothly intermixed with vivid anecdotes, entertaining digressions, and a disarming willingness to risk everything in the course of a revealing personal narrative." -- Publisher's website.
