What makes
a certain person's life remarkable and influential? In the case of Carl
Rogers, the revolutionary and widely published humanistic psychologist,
this book offers several factors: his ideas, his way of relating to colleagues,
friends and family, and simply his way of being. Likewise, the eight other
people featured here are notable for the same reasons. Connecting well
with people is characteristic of each of them:
Thomas
Gordon, Maureen O'Hara, Ruth Sanford, John Vasconcellos, Art Combs, David
Rogers, Natalie Rogers, Haruko Tsuge
Inspired
in part by knowing or studying with Carl Rogers, they have created their
own ideas and ventures to help many others. Their stories make this a
multiple biography: a mosaic of stories about people who helped change
the world -- and the way we feel about ourselves.
