The Farther Reaches of Human NatureAbraham H. Maslow was one of th foremost spokesmen of humanistic psychology. In The Farther Reaches of Human Nature, an extension of his classic Toward a Psychology of Being, Maslow explores the complexities of human nature by using both the empirical methods of science and the aesthetics of philosophical inquiry. With essays on biology, synergy, creativity, cognition, self-actualization, and the hierarchy of needs, this posthumous work is a wide-ranging synthesis of Maslow's inspiring and influential ideas.
In this book [Maslow] has touched upon all the key concepts of his work and life over the past forty years. Going beyond previous insights but more than this, presenting his ideas, his experiences, himself in a native, original, vernacular tongue. --Clark Moustakos

....about the possibilities of becoming fully human. This was one of the books that inspired me to study psychology. An eminently sane look at the "higher reaches" from the psychologist who dared to wonder why we study sickness but not health. --Reviewer: Craig Chalquist from Escondido, CA USA
