Personal experiences and perspectives: Experiences in communication -- My philosophy of interpersonal relationships and how it grew -- In retrospect: forty-six years -- Growing old: or older and growing? -- Do we need "a" reality? -- Aspects of a person-centered approach: Foundations of a person-centered approach -- Empathic: an unappreciated way of being -- Ellen West-and loneliness -- Building person-centered communities: implications for the future -- Six vignettes -- Some new challenges to the helping professions -- Process of education-and its future: Can learning encompass both ideas and feelings? -- Beyond the watershed: and where now? -- Learnings in large groups: their implications for the future -- Looking ahead: a person-centered scenario: World of tomorrow, and the person of tomorrow.
Summary: "A Way of Being was written in the early 1980s, near the end of Carl Rogers's career, and serves as a coda to his classic On Becoming a Person. More personal and philosophical than his earlier writings, it traces his professional and personal development and ends with a person-centered prophecy, in which he predicts a future changing in the direction of more humaneness. Now, fifteen years later, the psychiatrist and best-selling author Dr. Irvin Yalom revisits A Way of Being, offering a contemporary view of this remarkable work."--Publisher description.
