In Encountering America, cultural historian Jessica Grogan reveals how these ideas stormed the barricades of our culture through the humanistic psychology movement--the work of a handful of maverick psychologists who revolutionized American culture in the 1960s and '70s. Profiling thought leaders including Abraham Maslow, Rollo May, and Timothy Leary, Grogan draws on untapped primary sources to explore how these minds and the changing cultural atmosphere combined to create a widely influential movement. From the group of ideas that became known as New Age to perennial American anxieties about wellness, identity, and purpose, Grogan traces how humanistic psychology continues to define the way we understand ourselves.… (més)

This book was fairly interesting. Humanistic psychology was something we didn't cover too extensively in my psych classes but I'd always been intrigued by it, and this book certainly showed me more about it. I might be interested now in reading some of the actual books by the bigshots in the movement. It also taught me a lot about the culture of the '60's. ( )
