- Synopsis
- During his last year of life, the distinguished American psychologist Carl R. Rogers had begun work on a one-volume collection of his writings with the assistance of Howard Kirschenbaum, author of On Becoming Carl Rogers, and Valerie Land Henderson, his associate of many years. After Dr. Rogers's death in February of 1987, they completed the project. This volume stands as a splendid introduction to the life and work of a pioneering psychotherapist. Selections ranging from 1942 to 1987 provide a personal look at his early influences and marriage, and reveal his approach to psychotherapy, individual case studies, research, and even cross-cultural efforts to improve communication with professionals in the Soviet Union. We see the beginning of "client-centered" therapy and can trace Rogers's commitment to its ideals through a lifetime. In the words of Dr. Sidney B. Simon: "The Carl Rogers Reader is a gem. Between one set of covers is the glorious and essential Rogers." Book jacket.
