"We live in a time when the very private experience of having a personal destiny to fulfill has become a subversive political force of major proportions. An this (perhaps) is the way the industrial world comes to an end, in a noisy celebration of social deviance and personal defiance."

In "Person/Planet," Theodore Roszak, founder of the ecopsychology movement and author of such internationally acclaimed works as "The Making of a Counter Culture" and "The Voice of the Earth," brings together the insights of deep ecology and humanistic psychology. The result is a powerful reassertion of Personalism, the philosophy that has most stubbornly resisted the dehumanizing forces of industrial society. Drawing his inspiration from such thinkers as Lewis Mumford, Thomas Merton, Emmanuel Mounier, Martin Buber, and Fritz Schumacher, Roszak explores the emerging congruency between environmental enlightenment and spiritual need. As bleak as the environmental fate of the Earth may seem, "Person/Planet" offers a daringly original and hopeful hypothesis: that the Earth herself is already working in the depths of the human psyche to heal our troubled urban-industrial culture. "The needs of the planet," Roszak believes, "are the needs of the person. The rights of the person are the rights of the planet."

Good So Far
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen (2 Pillowcases)
Don't let my 4-star review dissuade you, as I've had to reassess prior products that initially I thought were great but then failed me in the long term. These are definitely full and plush, you might want to avoid if you prefer slightly thinner support, especially if you are a side sleeper. But so far I find them comfortable and meeting all of my expectations.

These Made My Bed Game Stronger
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen (2 Pillowcases)
These pillowcases impressed me right away. The material feels good in your hands and the stitching looks like it was done right. Soft enough to sleep on comfortably, but not that overly silky soft that gets hot. I’ve washed them several times already and they came out looking the same each time. No shrinkage and no issues with the fit. I sleep pretty still, and honestly I never even think about the pillowcases once I’m out. That tells me everything I need to know. Great value and something I’d buy again.

ABSOLUTELY the BEST pillows I have ever slept on. My husband hates flat pillows and he absolutely sleeps like a dream on these. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE.
