"Taking a numinous dream as her departure point, the author weaves her way through the mythological and religious amplifications of dream imagery to address issues of woman's soul and mind. She shows a feminine way of proceeding from the depth of lived experience that must undergird any approach to feminist theology. A meditative book and fascinating to read."
-Ann Ulanov - co-author of The Witch and the Clown
"Behold Woman is a powerful new interpretation of Jung's significance for feminist theology. It should be "must reading" for all seminarians and clergy."
-Professor Robert Moore – Chicago Theology Seminary
"The mode of following a dream in order to understand something so intimate as woman/ man in their relationships. is a splendid one ... Dr. Dunne· s final explication of Dionysius in terms of the four women with whom he was related, was nothing short of brilliant. I can take heart that women are looking for a more nourishing idiom than the political one. and there is no doubt that Carrin Dunne· s approach contributes mightily to that."
-David Burrell. C.S.C. – University of Notre Dame
"Carrin Dunn's new, indepth reflections on the feminine is well named: Behold Woman. It is indeed an approach to a more balanced and androgynous theology for our times. For theology to be theology the reflections must come from the depths of a lived conviction and situation. Carrin' s offerings here have a clear ring of that kind of truth with a freshness that is intriguing.
She cites Eckhart and Lao Tzu as "thinkers in the feminine mode," under the aegis of soul. Her agile knowledge of Greek and other mythology keeps the reader wide awake as she swiftly moves from character to character with profound insight and application to herself and "everywoman."
The book could well serve as a text for a deeper-than-ever study of the feminine from a Jungian and mythological perspective. drawing heavily on ancient myths, East and West. The author's dream and the book end "unfinished" with a real sense of growth. discovery. some answers and still some pain but with more self-confidence, yet with an ever thirsting openness to the full Truth. to "It."

Yijing Wondering and Wandering, a unique contemplation of Yijijng as a Book of Wisdom, is comprised of two complementary studies of meaning in Yijing. In the first part, Wondering, Jane Schorre ponders the meaning of the hexagrams, taking into consideration their arrangement, their relationships as thirty-two reflecting pairs, and their characters - the Chinese names. In so doing, she offers a solution to the puzzling hexagram arrangement we find in Yijing. Along her way, she retells selections from the classics of Laozi and Zhuangzi for illustration and clarification. It is also illustrated with ancient paintings and the powerful calligraphy of Chen Zhongsen, master seal carver and artist. 
In the second part, Wandering, Carrin Dunne carries the meditation further, wandering through the labyrinth of trigrams, nuclear trigrams, and line texts - exploring psychological and spiritual meaning in the individual lines and their movements. She designates the four polar hexagram pairs that are not mirror reflections as Dragon Gates (the way of Being and Non-being) and the four pairs that are both polar and mirror reflections as River Crossings (the way of Becoming). Then, noticing the interplay of the core lines, ruling lines and boundary lines of these hexagrams, she discovers the "foursomes" and a kaleidoscopic view of Yijing as a whole -- a new approach ("key, not the key") to meaning in Yijing!
