Editor : Stefano Carpani, Editor : Ludmilla Osterman

Reviews and Endorsements

War is a topic perennial and urgently current. The insightful contributions to this discussion here published capture many of war’s psychological complexities and will help the questioning reader to think more clearly about a topic both fascinating and horrifying.
Murray Stein, PhD., author of Jung’s Map of the Soul

The important thing about this book is how real it is. Sure, it is full of Jungian, post-Jungian and spiritual reflections on war. And these include challenges to a great deal of orthodox psychosocial and psychoanalytic thinking. But I truly felt the smells, sounds, wounds and sheer mortality of war thrusting themselves at the reader. It is the kind of book that should have a "trigger warning" on it, that it might upset some readers. And a good thing too.
Professor Andrew Samuels, author of A New Therapy for Politics?

War as Reset is a big slow cooked stew with many ingredients including reflection on wars in Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Palestine, Argentina, Italy (Sicily) Ireland, China and issues of gender, identity, trauma, displacement, terror, and the presence and/or absence of the gods in the world in general and in wars in particular. War as Reset is most ambitious in scope and depth. It has in mind a specific focus—the intriguing notion of reset—of war as an attempt to “restore a deteriorating order and set of values, striving to revive the world of yesterday. against the fear of the “world of tomorrow”.
