This book, although published posthumously, can be considered Immanuel Velikovsky's most important work. It establishes the connection between his historical, geological, and astronomical insights and humanity today, here and now. Thus, it is of significant importance for all of us - and in multiple ways. It is one thing to know and understand what happened at some point in the past. It is quite another to recognize that those distant events still have an influence on our thinking, feeling, and behavior. This fact only became apparent through the extraordinary and entirely unexpected reaction to Velikovsky's publications, and in this book, the author, from the perspective of a psychotherapist, helps to illuminate this ongoing reaction.
