We tend to assume we're mature simply because we've reached a certain age. Yet most of us enter adulthood without ever learning what emotional maturity actually involves–or how to cultivate it. This book lays out the key psychological traits that define emotional adulthood: a capacity to explain rather than merely react, to forgive others without forgetting ourselves, to see conflict without falling into catastrophe and to live with the painful awareness of our limitations without despair.

An extended essay initially written in response to a letter pondering how to end war, Three Guineas eloquently relates women’s equal opportunity to the end of the power structures which contribute to conflict.

And why did some of them believe in shape-shifting reptilians and the health benefits of colloidal silver?

We may spend years mastering the external world–acquiring degrees, advancing careers, building families–without ever turning inwards to make sense of the person orchestrating it all: ourselves. This book is a guide to the elusive, essential task of self-knowledge.
