Beginning with the myth of Sophia, the Soul of the World, Sardello evokes a sense of the world as filled with her presence. He goes on to suggest that the soul's primary parts--its arts of concentration, meditation, imagination, contemplation--rather than belonging to individual consciousness, constitute a giving over of subjective, personal states to the consciousness that is the soul of the world. He shows how, practicing these arts, we can begin to approach daily life in a new way. The chapters that follow build up a psychology of the world--of architecture, money, the city, medicine, food and technology.
