The Psychology and Philosophy of Eugene Gendlin Summary

The Psychology and Philosophy of Eugene Gendlin: Making Sense of Contemporary Experience by Eric R. Severson (Seattle University, USA)

1. This book is written for clinicians and academics in philosophy and psychology and will be particularly helpful to psychologists looking for wisdom to help them in their work with contemporary clients: people beset by a range of problems, new and old, that are rattling the psychological state of modern persons.
2. The essays insist on creative and relevant reflections on the relationship between rigorous philosophy and the lived-experience of human persons.
3. Comprising the most cutting-edge reflections on Gendlin's work, this volume focuses on hyper-contemporary issues such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the implication of Black Lives Matter on the global discussion of racism and racial discrimination.
