Rogers had the secret when he started down the path of encounter groups. He seemed to be evolving even in his later years, where he found that even more hope existed in the world, if only we could tap that hope and positive energy.
This is a good book to read in addition to "becoming a person." Reading these books will give you insight and ideas as well as refreshing your perception and making you feel great! I found Carl Rogers to elaborate many of the themes that I felt rising up in me while I sat through countless University lectures in Psychology. Rogers also deals with the future of education, and its plain to see that Universities still have much work to do in this arena, work which they desperately need to undertake. Buy this book!
Like all Rogerian work, this is another masterpiece to add to your collection. Easy, enjoyable, and flows beautifully. A must read for the psychology, social work student. An excellent introductory book for the inspiring Humanistic psychologist. Highly recommend On Becoming A Person, by Rogers. Enjoy!
