The "Hero Journey" from dependent child to responsible adult is a central theme in all the world's mythologies. At the same time, the equally compelling journey from youth to middle age has been largely ignored. John Robinson sets out to correct that oversight in Death of a Hero, Birth of the Soul, a study of the spiritual and psychological realities of male midlife. By blending psychological research, mythology, poetry, mysticism, and personal experiences, Dr. Robinson weaves a story that is uniquely personal and speaks to the heart of every individual excited about the possibilities of entering the second half of life.

John Robinson presents the compelling journey from youth to middle age in this study of the spiritual and psychological realities of male midlife.
John Robinson is a psychologist and psychotherapist who has lived and practiced in the Sacramento area for over twenty years. He has an M.A. and Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Oregon. Early in his career, he specialized in medical and forensic psychology. His professional activities were changed radically in his early 40s by a series of transformative experiences in depth psychology, the midlife passage, the men's movement, and mystical spirituality. He now lives, works, and writes from the cauldron of his own first hand experience of the male journey of aging.
