The late Carl Rogers, founder of the humanistic psychology movement, revolutionized psychotherapy with his concept of "client-centered therapy." His influence has spanned decades, but that influence has become so much a part of mainstream psychology that the ingenious nature of his work has almost been forgotten. A new introduction by Peter Kramer sheds light on the significance of Dr. Rogers's work today. New discoveries in the field of psychopharmacology, especially that of the antidepressant Prozac, have spawned a quick-fix drug revolution that has obscured the psychotherapeutic relationship. As the pendulum slowly swings back toward an appreciation of the therapeutic encounter, Dr. Rogers's "client-centered therapy" becomes particularly timely and important.

From the Back Cover

The late Carl Rogers, founder of the humanistic psychology movement, revolutionized psychotherapy with his concept of client-centered therapy. His influence has spanned decades, but that influence has become so much a part of mainstream psychology that the ingenious nature of his work has almost been forgotten. Houghton Mifflin is delighted to introduce this preeminent psychologist to the next generation with a new edition of this landmark book.

This is one of those books that if you haven't read it, you've still got time. As essential as Emerson's essay Self-Reliance, if that helps sell it.

This book changes people.

Not finished yet, but already has changed my thinking regarding how I deal with people and choose to help others. I highly recommend this.

Outstanding open source supplmental resource for educating students on the humanistic perspective of counseling. You will not get such amazing detailed explanation for the client-centered/humanisitic perspective like this in any academic traditional textbook.

Interview style was best part. Unconditional positive regard for client with authentic communication.

Format: Audio CDVerified Purchase

Carl Rogers is great. 4 stars because contains great ideas.

Took off one star because he rambles on and on.

If you are interested in psychology, the key is to recognize patterns of psychotherapy.

The Carl Jung, Carl Rogers, Abraham Maslow, David Burns school is positive and optimistic which is helpful to people.

People need hope and meaning to be energized and happy.

I learned about Carl Rogers in college in the 1970s (saw a video of him interviewing patients/clients) - and still think the world of him, but this book is slow and dull.

One of the finest and most useful works in psychotherapy

November 18, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am currently rereading this book and find new insights and new ways that his careful, thoughtful, gentle, and intelligent style is informing my own work with my patients. Unlike so many writers in this field, he is simple, straightforward, clear, and never so arrogant as to say 'This is the right way' but only 'This is the way I see it, or have found it to be.'

He is one of the few therapists I have read, where I am constantly thinking about what he says in terms of my own patients and how I might see them and our interaction differently.

Got a different book, with a different ISBN number. Same exact title, but not as depicted in the description. Pretty frustrating as I am a student and need the correct book. Returned and bought correct book elsewhere.

I haven't finished the book yet, but so far so good. This is a good summary of the life and influence of Carl Rogers on psychology and public attitudes toward psychology and personality, for good and for ill.
