The Upstart Spring: Esalen and the Human Potential Movement: The First Twenty Years - Walter Truett Anderson

Detalii:

nThe first responsible account of an important, uniquely American happening - worthwhile reading for anyone who wants to piece together the social undercurrents of the 60s n --Robert Marquand, Christian Science Monitor nn nA charming, gossipy multiple biography of the curious gurus who spawned Esalen . . . a complex story, but a sequential one nonetheless, with feuds and psychic shoot-outs, games of capture the flag and smell the roses. n --Arthur Hough, San Francisco Chroniclen nUpstart Spring tells Esalens riveting, unfinished story - even-handedly, entertainingly, with sympathy, and yet holding little back. n --David Toolan, Commonwealthn nAn absolute delight: brimming with juicy gossip, and as carefully crafted as a page-turner novel. And it has substance, the gift of a therapist who also happens to be a cultural historian with a good eye for the telling meta-detail. n --Sandy McDonald, New Age Journaln nWalt Anderson has the requisite experience, humor, and affection (if not detachment, since Esalen teaches, indeed proves, that detachment is a universal impossibility) to carry off a wonderful account. n --Stewart Brand, Co-Evolution Quarterlyn nA wonderful read, consistently entertaining on several levels. n --Michael Rossman, Associate for Humanistic Psychology Newslettern nA superb wrap-up of a notable influence on our popular culture. --Rita Fink, Pacific Sunn
