A guide to the kinds of consciousness humans will need to survive the next century.

"Among the extraordinary group of English scholars, The Inklings, C. S. Lewish and J. R. R. Tolkien were more famous in the time but none thought more rigorously and clearly about language and meaning than Owen Barfield. His intellectual performance is filled with luminous delights."

"I wish that I could press A Owen Barfield Reader into the hands of every questing youth on every continent. Barfield's explorations of 'participation' and 'imagination' in the 20th century can b thought of as the first of many Steps To An Ecology of Mind (G. Bateson) and a guide to the kinds of consciousness humans will need to survive the next century."—Charles Keil, author of Urban Blues
