In our age of science and psychology, it's tempting to think of human sexuality in terms of biology and interpersonal relationships.

He finds spirituality inherent in sex, and at the same time explores the many ways in which spiritual values can sometimes wound our sexuality.

Writing, according to Thomas Moore, is sacred practice. Though we often don't think of it in these terms, everything we write - whether a love letter or a shopping list - connects us to the classic tradition of logos, or word.
