New Book Launch!

Reality in Action

Hi All,

It has been a while since I last posted, and that is because I have been working diligently on completing my third book. I began this work in 2016 upon completing two prior related books. My first two were self-published, and I was recently honored to have been approached by Thomas James at Crooked Circle Press to publish the third. I am excited to share this with you all here now!

Below is the description as it appears on the back cover, and for all purchasing and other related information you can click HERE.

Description

What if nothing you do is actually chosen?

In Reality in Action: How We Spend Our Time, Jill Spiewak Eng challenges the deeply held belief that we consciously control our actions. Blending neuroscience, philosophy, and mindful inquiry, she argues that behavior is physical, automatic, and unfolding before we notice it.

By dismantling ideas of free will, intention, and moral blame, Eng reframes how we understand responsibility, anxiety, compassion, and justice. The result is not nihilism, but clarity — a way of seeing human life as it actually happens, not as we imagine it should.

Through her practice, Mindful Reality, one can acknowledge that the body’s physical existence is the only action there can ever be.

Provocative, rigorous, and quietly humane, Reality in Action is for readers ready to question the story of the self — and what follows when it falls apart.
