ORDINARY ECSTASY 'Humanistic psychology is not just a new brand of psychology, to set side by side on the shelves with all the old brands. It is a whole different way of looking at psychological science. It is a way of doing science which includes love, involvement and spontaneity, instead of systematically excluding them. And the object of this science is not the prediction and control of people's behaviour, but the liberation of people from the bonds of neurotic control, whether this comes from outside (in the structures of our society) or from inside.'

ORDINARY ECSTASY 'Humanistic psychology is not just a new brand of psychology, to set side by side on the shelves with all the old brands. It is a whole different way of looking at psychological science. It is a way of doing science which includes love, involvement and spontaneity, instead of systematically excluding them. And the object of this science is not the prediction and control of people's behaviour, but the liberation of people from the bonds of neurotic control, whether this comes from outside (in the structures of our society) or from inside.' So begins an enthralling ride through a whole new world - a world which did not exist fifteen years ago, and has only come to most people's knowledge in the past seven years. This is a book about a new way of understanding ourselves and other people. It gives the theory behind encounter groups and the idea of personal growth, behind new training methods which rely on shared experience rather than direct teaching, behind the recent research on altered states of consciousness, behind the new ideas on relationships between the sexes - and shows a single thread running through all of these. It is the first guide to this new and exciting field, designed both for the expert and the generál reader. John Rowan describes how humanistic psychology came into being and began to flourish all over the world; telis how it is applied in eight different fields; and finishes by asking somé pointed questions about the future - what are the implications of all this for each person's own self and for the wider society in which we all live? The book includes a full annotated set of references to further reading. enabling the reader to follow up points of particular interest. An appendix deals with somé questions of theory and research. The Author John Rowan was trained as a social psychologist, and has written several books in that area, but over the past few years he has become more and more involved with the humán potential movement. He is Chairperson of the Association for Humanistic Psychology in the United Kingdom. Vissza
