On Becoming a Person - A Therapist's View of Psychotheraphy - 2nd edition

A landmark book offering a therapist''s perspective on psychotherapy--a must-read for anyone interested in clinical psychology or personal growth. Carl Rogers, founder of the humanistic psychology movement, revolutionized psychotherapy with his concept of "client-centered therapy." His influence has spanned decades, but that influence has become so much a part of mainstream psychology that the ingenious nature of his work has almost been forgotten. New discoveries in the field of psychopharmacology, especially that of the antidepressant Prozac, have spawned a quick-fix drug revolution that has obscured the psychotherapeutic relationship. As the pendulum slowly swings back toward an appreciation of the therapeutic encounter, Dr. Rogers''s "client-centered therapy" becomes particularly timely and important.>
