Luce Irigaray reflects on three critical concerns of our time: the cultivation of energy in its many forms, the integration of Asian and Western traditions, and the reenvisioning of religious figures for the contemporary world. A philosopher as well as a psychoanalyst, Irigaray draws deeply on her personal experience in addressing these questions. Building on some of her previous work on the importance of international and intercultural understanding, Irigaray argues that interculturality, represented here mainly by yoga (an Eastern practice adopted by many Westerners), can help to move us towards full realization of what it means to be human. Irigaray's writing is always idiosyncratic as well as passionate, and here she is even more autobiographical than usual. This is one of her most readable works-and one of her most enjoyable!
