{"product_id":"2940014136549","title":"Nature Heals: The Psychological Essays of Paul Goodman","description":"A collection of Paul Goodman’s essays, NATURE HEALS includes selections from his thinking on psychological subjects over a period of several decades. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGoodman trained first in Reichian techniques and wrote the first major American account of Wilhelm Reich’s theories in their relation to the neo-Freudianism of Erich Fromm and Karen Horney. Shortly thereafter he met Frederick and Laura Perls, and with them and a few others was a founding member of the New York Institute for Gestalt Therapy. In the collaboration with Perls and Hefferline on the book, Goodman was responsible for the presentation of the theoretical section, “Novelty, Excitement and Growth.” He practiced individual and group therapy through the Fifties, and his later social criticism contained many essays on psychoanalytic topics. Also included here are lecture notes for seminars he gave at the New York Institute, notes of self-analysis, and excerpts from his journals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNATURE HEALS has been edited, with an introduction, by Taylor Stoehr, Goodman’s literary executor and editor of a dozen volumes of his work. He is currently writing Goodman’s biography.","brand":"The Gestalt Journal Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47073981038832,"sku":"2940014136549","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014136549_p0.jpg?v=1763601311","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014136549","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
