Zusammenfassung:
Carl Rogers, one of the most influential psychologists of all time, was a pioneer of humanistic psychology and the originator of the person-centred approach. The person-centred approach is characterised by a trust in people to find their own directions in life when they are in the right social environment: one that is genuine, empathic, and unconditionally accepting. Rogers called it a 'quiet revolution,' realising that what he had developed was a way of being in the world and with other people that challenged hierarchical structures of power and control. He sparked a revolution in practice that is still relevant today. Despite Rogers' legacy, his ideas are often diluted, misrepresented, and misunderstood. This book positions Rogers' humanistic approach clearly within contemporary psychology and the wider field of human flourishing.
