Souls in Boxes explores the tension between our deepest human longings--our soulfulness--and the cultural barriers to expressing them, resulting in the needless failure to satisfy ourselves in our most essential pursuits--as lovers, as friends, as workers in organizational settings. A book for everybody, it invites readers to reconsider our most basic human interaction. Appropriately grounded in scholarship and enduring literature, it is both soundly reasoned and deeply felt.
