Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View
The limits of our cosmological imagination define the limits of our existence: Do we live in a disenchanted, mechanistic, purposeless universe as a randomly produced oddity of isolated consciousness, or do we participate in a living cosmos of unfolding meaning and purpose?

Richard Tarnas
Every now and then a book about astrology lands on Tapestry's doorstep. As soon as one comes in, it goes out. Right into the give-away pile. Astrology might be good for a laugh but it’s not something you’re going to hear about on CBC Radio!
So, here’s the problem. One day, a book lands on our doorstep. It’s about astrology, but it’s written by a highly respected scholar — whose last book was praised by the likes of Joseph Campbell and Huston Smith. His name is Richard Tarnas 
and the book is called Cosmos and Psyche. There's only one option — interview him! You'll hear the results on this week's Tapestry.
Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View is published by Viking and distributed in Canada by Penguin.
