The Life and Work of Carl Rogers

Author(s) : Howard Kirschenbaum

Reviews and Endorsements

Absolutely essential reading for understanding Carl Rogers’ achievements, humanity and frailties – full of fascinating insights into his life and thinking. It is of real interest to all therapists and educationalists where his writing and practice have been so influential. This is the definitive biography of a leading figure whose influence in contemporary society extends so much further than person-centred therapy and psychology for which he is best known.
Tim Bond, Emeritus Professor, University of Bristol and former Chair of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy

A fascinating and complex picture of the life and work of a man who never sought followers but continues to inspire many.
Elke Lambers, former Chair of the World Association for Person-Centered and Experiential Psychotherapy and Counselling

Kirschenbaum’s biography not only covers Rogers’ entire life, but also puts that extraordinary life and work into the kind of perspective that only time and maturity can provide. This is an outstanding resource and a “must read” for mental health students and professionals, and for the lay public.
Ronald F. Levant, Ed.D., ABPP, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, University of Akron and former President of the American Psychological Association
