Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
The personal integrity of Jerold Bozarth shines through this book. It is one that I would recommend for second-year Diploma students and practitioners alike. Jen Popkin, Self and Society, Vol. 27, No. 5, November, 1999. Jerold Bozarth planned to write this book for 20 years. It is very good news that he has produced this authoritative text now. David Acres, British Journal of Guidance and Counselling, Vol. 27, No. 4, 1999. At various points in the book, but particularly in Chapter 4, Bozarth points to the "actualising tendency" as the foundation block of the person-centred approach. This is a superb chapter, bringing together and integrating Rogers' theoretical propositions about this fundamental motivating force - essential reading for any student. Professor Dave Mearns, Counselling, Vol. 10, No. 3. August, 1999.
