520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Here is a forthright and thought-provoking critique of modern psychology. Focusing on the pervasive theories which espouse a secular humanism based on worship of the self, the author examines his material from scientific, philosophical, economic, ethical, and religious points of view. He contends that psychology today has become a religion, part of the problem of contemporary life rather than its resolution. -- Provided by publisher.
