In this capstone work, the late Bruce Wilshire seeks to rediscover the fullness of
life in the world by way of a more complete activation of the body's potentials. Appealing
to our powers of hearing and feeling, with a special emphasis on music, he engages
a rich array of composers, writers, and thinkers ranging from Beethoven and Mahler
to Emerson and William James. Wilshire builds on James's concept of the much-at-once
to name the superabundance of the world that surrounds, nourishes, holds, and stimulates
us; that pummels and provokes us; that responds to our deepest need--to feel ecstatically
real. -- Amazon.com
