Publisher's Synopsis
Summary We have been led to believe, or molded into believing, in a limited conception of what is humanly possible! There is currently emerging, however, a redefinition as to what is humanly possible.... a new conception of our human heritage.... Humanistic/Holistic psychology is this new, developing theory of human development which challenges some of the underlying premises that have dominated American Psychological thought since the 1900's. It is often referred to as "the third force" and is distinct from Psychoanalysis and Behaviorism, which have been the two previous forces in American psychology. This book provides the reader with the basic structure of this emerging orientation as well as its practical applications in the areas of counseling and personal growth. It is time to stop selling ourselves short!
