The handbook of human growth opens up path to self-awareness with an easily approachable and fresh perspective. In the handbook, the reader is guided to reflect themselves to the characters of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. 12 archetypical behavioral patterns based on Carl Jung's theories are opened up to the reader. These are embodied in characters such as Aragorn and Arwen. The reader is also introduced to 54 other symbolical concepts that path to self-discovery brings forth. Frodo symbolizes our consciousness, so I wish you an interesting journey as you step into Frodo's hairy feet.
