The unconscious sprang to the attention of the West a hundred
years ago, and we are still struggling to absorb its full impact.
It was one thing to understand the concept, to see it and believe
it, but another to live with it, to take in fully its challenge to
our deepest cultural assumptions. Today, as we expand our
understanding of its reach, we are still coming to grips with what
it means. This “new unconscious” is driven by the identities we
assume, the groups we belong to, the ideas we inherit, the
languages we use–all the elements that provide meaning and
structure to our world.
What You Don’t Know You Know is about this emergent
understanding, and how it forces us to rethink our relationships
with each other as well as our beliefs about what it means to be a
person, to have a self. It is for all those who want a better
understanding of the complexity of human motivation, whether as an
executive faced with employees resisting change, an elected
official trying to forge agreements among competing interests, a
consultant brought in to restructure an ailing corporation, or
individuals struggling to understand their relationships and why
they do the things they do. All too often, our actions do not
conform to our explicit intentions or to common sense. We are more
constricted than we think, but sometimes
we are also smarter.
