Publisher Comments:
A fascinating glimpse of what science and medicine might be like if we could work to "re-humanize" them. Maslow contrasts humanistic science with value-free, orthodox science, and offers a new knowledge paradigm to replace classical "scientific objectivity". This eBook edition contains the complete 168 page text of the original 1966 hardcover edition. Contents: Preface by Abraham H. Maslow Acknowledgments 1. Mechanistic and Humanistic Science 2.
