5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent book,
By OC Yogi (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Psychotherapy East and West (Paperback)
I continue to return to this book time and again, and each time I come away with new insight. This book gives a great overview of eastern (yogic) psychology and compares to western psychological theories.
