Review "This incitement to work from the heart is much more than merely a newly packaged edition of Rowans seminal work. What you have here is a comprehensive and comprehensible integration of many of the most important lines in todays psychotherapy and counselling: the humanistic, the existential, the authentic, the relational and the transpersonal. It will captivate students and trainees as well as more experienced therapists – and, I really think this time, will send out ripples way beyond the humanistic/existential communities, reaching psychodynamic psychotherapists and counsellors, psychoanalysts and Jungians in many countries."- Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of EssexThis erudite work, by one of the most senior veterans of the British therapy world, is a must-read for all students and practitioners of counselling and psychotherapy. John Rowan presents complex ideas and debates in a straightforward, no-nonsense way that is sophisticated yet accessible. This book will help get new practitioners started on their professional journey and will be a useful refresher for those with many years of experience. Although many of the sometimes problematic issues that Rowan discusses have been around for a couple of generations, he has managed to update much of his thinking, based on a long lifetime of teaching and practice, to give this latest edition a contemporary and vital feel. - Keith Silvester, psychosynthesis psychotherapist, supervisor and trainer based in London, currently Chair of Training Standards of the Humanistic & Integrative College of UKCP."This incitement to work from the heart is much more than merely a newly packaged edition of Rowans seminal work.
