Provocative, penetrating, altogether worth reading. -Contemporary Psychology

A distinguished psychologist outlines here the need for a psychology of becoming, of the growth and development of personality that he says can best be discovered by looking within ourselves. Modern psychology is in a dilemma, Allpost states, for it has trimmed down the image of man as a free democractic being. He appraises the present state of the psychology of personality and indicates its relevance to human welfare and religion.
