Abstract

In my 2,600-word review essay "Daniel Bergner's 2022 Book The Mind and the Moon, and Walter J. Ong's Thought," I begin by highlighting the mature work from the early 1950s onward of the American Jesuit cultural historian and media ecology theorist Walter J. Ong (1912-2003; Ph.D. in English, Harvard University, 1955). Next, I highlight the 2022 book The Mind and the Moon: My Brother's Story, the Science of Our Brains, and the Search for Our Psyches (Ecco/ HarperCollins) by the American journalist Daniel Bergner (born in 1960), with special attention to his account of the life and quietly inspiring work of Carol Mazel-Carlton and her lifelong struggle with hearing voices.
