Soft cover. Condición: Good. Reprint. Paperback.crease on cover. 'Self-realization is not an anti-social principle; it is firmly based on the fact that men need each other in order to be themsleves'. With this axiom of psycgology the author, at the outset of an excellent and simple study of human personality, counters the fear expressed by Bertrand Russell and others that analytical psychotherapy may tend to produce an anarchical race of Byrons or Hitlers. Toleran and impartial in tone, his book stands securely on the ground that is common to Freudian, Jungian, and other schools of psychology. Maintaining that many roads lead to self-reliazation, he discusses in successive chapters the mental mazes of identification, introjection, projection, and dissociation, through which the individual, sooner or later, must find his way on the path to maturity. 186 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
