You won't find anything better, not only for someone who is just beginning to take their dreams seriously, but also for those who find working with dreams a frustrating, baffling affair." - Round Table Review
What ever happened to silence? Actually nothing, and Harry Wilmer takes great pains to show how we have submerged it under a toxic barrage of noise. Using both clinical examples of the power of silence from his case histories, and cultural values of silence, he uncovers a astonishing theme in the Japanese idea of MA as silence. Wilmer points out how silence gives meaning to words, dreams, thought, action and music. From his long experience as a Jungian analyst, he weaves his ideas into an eminently practical treatise on the phenomenology of silence. With many references to literature as well as his personal life experiences and crises, he offers a readable and important new story of the universal and spiritual significance of silence in a world of jackhammer noise.
HUBER THE TUBER is an imaginary tubercle bacillus whose adventures in Lungland are described and pictured in this book. Employing the use of numerous illustrations, the author has pictured as well as described a story of tuberculosis. Each of Huber’s adventures—including meeting his wife in a joint (a bar and nightclub)—tell some important details about tuberculosis. In addition to a narrative describing Huber’s escapades, his fight with the Home Guard Army and Corpuscle Nelson, his narrow escape from the Phagocyte Shark, there is a short scientific interpretation quite separate from the story. Huber the Tuber, Nasty von Sputum, and Rusty the Bloodyvitch are all finally rounded up by Corpuscle Lipsky and his mechanized Army. Huber’s idyllic but ill-fated romance with Bovy only proves the well-known and indisputable fact that Love is Blind. “This is a must book for everyone”—Science News Letter “Dr. Wilmer has made a story of ‘Huber the Tuber’ both educational and hilarious. I not only enjoyed it very much, but learned a good deal from it. I certainly would recommend it for light reading and serious education.”—John Kieran “Ingeniously the author has made the acquisition of basic information about tuberculosis painless and exciting. It is in the best tradition of modern health education.”—Morris Fishbein, M.D., Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association “The humorous adventures of ‘Huber the Tuber’ will fascinate lay and medical readers. Wilmer’s clever drawings make the pathology of tuberculosis a joy to investigate and impossible to forget.”—Leroy U. Gardner, M.D., Director, The Saranac Laboratory, Saranac Lake, New York
“Growing numbers of people are fascinated by the dream world. From psychological scholars and analysts to spontaneous groups and cults, the dream has a compelling voice. … I make the point in this book that our dreams are our most creative inner source of wisdom and hope. … The criterion for selection is simply that each one illustrates a common human life experience that all readers have had or are likely to have.” – From the Introduction by the Author
