A trenchant analysis of modern psychology -- an enterprise that Paul Vitz maintains has become a religion, a secular cult of self, now part of the problem of modern life rather than part of its resolution. Virtually rewritten, this second edition of the original 1977 text takes into account much of what has happened in the field of psychology during the past seventeen years.

A forthright and thought-provoking critique of modern psychology. A devastating indictment of the 'me' generation. All those who are interested in psychology and religion and the relationship between the 2 will benefit greatly from this book.

The first book by a competent psychologist which analyzes the latest trends in the psychology of selfism over against the wider field of basic human values, personal and social. A devastating indictment of the me generation. All those who are interested in psychology and religion and the relationship between the two will benefit greatly from this book.

A critique of secular humanism as a cult of self-worship--"selfism", with social science practitioners as priests of "Psychology as Religion". Polemic against the admittedly broad spectrum of "existentialists", singling out four "most important self-theorists", who are incidentally quite influential because "scientific" - Eric Fromm, Carl Rogers, Abraham Maslow, Rollo May. Seems to argue that Self-help is anti-Christian since "the family is a basic Christian concept", and "a universal cross-cultural concept". (48) ( )

This book is for the reader interested in a critique of contemporary psychology—the reader who knows, perhaps only intuitively, that psychology has become more a sentiment than a science and is now part of the problem of modern life rather than part of its resolution.
