John F. Schumaker - The Corruption of Reality: a Unified Theory of Religion, Hypnosis, And Psychopathology

This book challenges many of the ideas in the three disciplines of religion, hypnosis, and psychopathology and paves the way for an exciting, far-reaching and unified theory of conscious and unconscious behavior. Schumaker includes a historical and cross-cultural analysis which shows how reality reconstruction takes place and outlines the shortcomings of current psychotherapeutic approaches.

Reviews

& 8220;

Sure to be labeled immoral by some organized-religion enthusiast, balderdash by some ultrarational pragmatist, Schumaker's book makes a case for the essential sameness of religion, hypnosis, and psychopathology. Cogently reasoned, laboriously constructed, its arguments are obviously not for everyone, but they will inspire and animate adherents and opponents alike. Are these three areas of human behavior merely different manifestations of the desire, conscious or unconscious, to bend reality and the perception of it to personal ends? Schumaker deals with reality, sanity, culture, dissociation and suggestion, and the roles and interactions of society and the individual, reducing each to its essence and examining and evaluating it individually and in concert with the others. Citing noted researchers and observers, he demonstrates how humans generally are inclined to construct "insane" realities that distance them from objective but possibly undesirable reality. Furthermore, Schumaker's views and findings on the roles of ritual and perception in our lives and in our views of reality are fascinating. Mike Tribby

Our generation's Freud

This book is the most important book of the entire 20th century. Like Freud, it will define the next 100 years of psychological thinking. Unlike Freud, it will last beyond that, becuase it is more than visionary, it is also grounded in hard science.

If you ever wanted to understand how educated, rational adults can believe in the stupidist things imaginable, this book explains it.

The only weak point of the book is the final chapter, where Schumaker suggests we create a false religion to safely guide people's evolutionarily inescapable stupidity. This is John's own corruption of reality: thinking that we can actually find a painless solution. But he presents it half-heartedly enough that I think even he understands it will never work.

The only solution is expecting people to grow up and act like adults. Life isn't what you wanted it to be - tough. Deal.

To put it another way: when you think about it long enough, this book explains 9/11, why we are in Iraq, and the current flap over Intelligent Design. That's a heck of an accomplishment for a book written many years ago.
