Dante's Path: A Practical Approach to Achieving Inner Wisdom

Summary: a practical approach to the metaphor of the Commedia
Review: This book is part an interpretation of Dante's Commedia and part a set of related practical meditation and visualization exercises for following Dante's path as interpreted by the authors.

The fact that the Commedia is a metaphor for a psychological-spritual journey towards wholeness is certainly not original to the authors. They could have written volumes on the symbolism in the Commedia from a depth psychological perspective, but in doing so, they would have lost the popular appeal of this book as a guide for a psychological-spiritual practice. They manage the balance between interpretation and practice nicely.
