The Quest for the Inner Human
Psychology means athe study of the soula; it is the social science concerned with investigating who we are, why we have certain feelings, and why we do the things we do. Are we no more than a vast assembly of nerve cells and their associated molecules? Is biology (our genetic inheritance) adestiny, a or does social upbringing play a crucial role? What are the roles played by aNaturea and by aNurturea? Are we purely physical beings, or is there an aspect that can be called aspirituala? This thought-provoking novel takes you on a journey of intellectual and emotional exploration, considering along the way questions that weave all asked ourselves, such as: Is it true that we only use 10% of our brains? Does playing classical music for infants increase their intelligence? Do crime rates go up during a full moon? Can hypnosis, or post-hypnotic suggestions, make us do something we wouldnat normally do? Does subliminal advertising influence us to buy products? Are our memories stored indelibly, almost like a tape recorder? What causes memory lapses as we age? Can arepresseda traumatic memories be recovered through hypnosis? Do some people have amultiple personalitiesa? How can I tell if someone has a aneurosis, a or a apsychosisa? Do men have an ainner femininea side, and women an ainner masculinea? Are there innate psychological differences between males and females? The four main characters in this book will guide you through a diverse and sometimes bewildering world of differing approaches to answering such questions, such as Freudian, Jungian, and Adlerian; Humanistic, Existential, and Transpersonal; as well as Cognitive, Emotive, and Behaviorist. Along the way you will learn about the developmental stages proposed by psychologists such as Erikson, Kohlberg, Piaget, and Fowler, and even explore some of the questions currently being asked by both neuroscientists, and philosophers of the mind.
