Leanne Payne writes: "In my book on CS Lewis, The Real Presence, I wrote that one of the great bulwarks against the ideological thrust to combine good and evil that now affects us at every level is the intellect of CS Lewis, and that his books are unique in this century. I believe we now have another such in Dr. Satinover. His works will be extraordinary effective in unmasking this dread synthesis as it has flowed into church, synagogue, culture and the body politic through psychological reductionism. Of late, the flow has become a flood, as Jungian psychology and its many tributaries --all neo-Gnostic transforms of psycyhological reductionism -- are eagerly taken in by a spiritually-deprived culture no longer able to dicern genuine living water from its imitation. With his background as an eminent scholar and analyst, and especially because of his close familiarity with the world of Jungianism, Dr. Satinover has the ability to unmask this gnosticism from the inside. This is precisely what he does in The Empty Self: CG Jung and the Gnostic Transformation of Modern Identitiy.
