Spilt Milk: The Real Function of Crying - Paperback

by Frank Dale Robinette (Author)

The fact that most people believe you shouldn't cry over spilt milk is the primary reason our species is likely doomed to extinction. Our cry function has been under serious attack for the past 5000 years. Although this book offers scant hope for our species, it might be of some hope to individuals. This book proposes that the purpose of crying is to integrate trauma. It also proposes the trauma that has not been integrated leaves people living from images and beliefs. And these lead to every disaster of mankind, including murder, rape, child abuse, spousal abuse, and especially war. Beliefs always trump reality, and crying is the only road back to reality. This book is about the biological function of crying.
