This review is from: The Creation of New Ideas: A Guide Book (Paperback)
The latest book from psychotherapist Alvin Mahrer is an excursion into the deeper areas of the thought process. With a honest and genuine style, Mahrer challenges the reader to think about and discover new ways to be creative and revolutionary (in the creative sense). To think about and explore how one develops new ideas not just in psychotherapy but more so as a way of thinking that can be applied in other disciplines. This book will challenge you to discover what one has the potential to become (see earlier works).
