Head versus Heart by Michael Hampson
Michael Hampson's HEAD versus HEART rebuilds the enneagram on a single new foundation: the fundamental question of how we engage with the world around us. To this task we each bring three basic resources - 'head' and 'heart' and our 'gut reactions'. HEAD versus HEART is a study of the interaction of these three. From the very beginning HEAD versus HEART explains as it describes - something which has never been done for the enneagram before. It explains for the first time why the nine types emerge as they do - and why they interconnect according to the enneagram's distinctive irregular pattern of interconnecting lines. The material is logical and rational throughout - with clear links to cognitive, behavioural and even neurological psychology. All of this makes HEAD versus HEART the most accessible material ever produced on the enneagram - and the most important new work on the enneagram in thirty years.
'Written by a highly experienced, wise and practical parish priest, the book guides the reader gently and firmly through a whole programme of discovery and - in the proper sense - conversionThis particular reader was forced again and again to recognise the challenging sense of the analysis offered, and hopes that many more will find the same excitement and prompting to growth in these pages.' Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury 'The enneagram never ceases to fascinate and reveal new depths about the human person. Michael Hampson's book will do exactly that, along with some new insights that might please both the scientific minded and the faith community too.' Richard Rohr, author of The Enneagram: a Christian Perspective
