The Polarized Mind:
Why It's Killing Us and What We Can Do About It
by Kirk Schneider, PhD
University Professors Press, Spring 2013
What do a school shooter, a corporate swindler, and a bullheaded ideologue have in common? They all converge on what Dr. Kirk Schneider terms “the polarized mind.” The polarized mind, which is the fixation on one point of view to the utter exclusion of competing points of view, is killing us—personally, politically, and environmentally. Drawing from the standpoint of existential psychology, this book details the basis for the polarized mind, how it has ravaged leaders and their cultures throughout history (up to and including our own time), and steps we urgently need to take to address the problem. These steps combine contemporary insights with centuries of cross-cultural, awe-inspired wisdom.
Advance Praise for The Polarized Mind
"....one of the great reflections on humanity."
~ Alfried Langle, MD, President of the International Society for Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, Vienna, Austria
“The Polarized Mind is excellent. In my estimation it is a 21st century extension of Rollo May’s Cry for Myth. I mean this as the highest compliment.”
~ Sheldon Solomon, PhD, Social Psychologist, Skidmore College, co-founder of Terror Management Theory and co-author of In the Wake of 9/11
“Enormously important...[The Polarized Mind] will be of great appeal to students, trainees, practitioners, and academics...as well as to educated readers concerned about the perils of human life in the 21st century.”
~ Robert D. Stolorow, PhD, Author, World, Affectivity, Trauma: Heidegger and Post-Cartesian Psychoanalysis, Founding faculty member, Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis
"The Polarized Mind is not only very timely, it is also very moving."
