Wired for What : The Urgency of Becoming Ourselves in an Age of Civilizational Discontent
Overview
We live in a culture obsessed with solutions and hostile to the pause that would reveal whether we need them. We fix, optimize, medicate, and disrupt - but we rarely stop to ask the more fundamental questions: why, what, where, when, and who. In Wired for What, psychoanalyst and neuropsychologist Jane G. Goldberg, Ph.D., argues that human transformation - in the individual life and across the whole of civilizational history follows a single, recognizable pattern. She calls it the volutional arc: five phases that repeat at every scale of human experience, from the development of the infant brain to the rise and fall of entire cultures. Understanding where you are in that arc, she argues, changes everything about how you meet what is happening to you.
