Synchronicity -- the occurrence of meaningful coincidence -- has fascinated scholars and scientists alike for centuries. Carl Jung's ground-breaking book Synchronicity first explored its meaning and pointed to a hidden order and fabric to the events in people's lives. Cousineau has gathered a compendium of stories from literary luminaries and great thinkers including Huston Smith, Tess Gallagher, Larry Dossey, and Bill Moyers.

Now, in The Heart of Synchronicity, theory takes a back seat as amazing true stories of ordinary people take center stage. Best-selling author Phil Cousineau has gathered a heartwarming collection of stories that demonstrate how such meaningful coincidences can affect all our lives. In a powerful introduction, Cousineau traces the path of his own life through its synchronicities, including his chance meeting with Joseph Campbell that led to the writing of The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work. He examines incidents in literature, theater, and film that illustrate the ways in which synchronicity is the key to the riddle of our lives.

Cousineau shows how recognizing synchronicities helps readers follow the thread of their lives, sense the invisible bonds that connect all people, and know that each human interaction has a lasting effect. The Heart of Synchronicity is a powerfully moving collection of what Cousineau calls "soul moments" that are sure to move and inspire.
