Author Joseph Sassoon tackles this question and many others in this, his second volume on self-actualization. As a missionary for humanism, he explores the social conditions that are necessary for the greatest number of people to achieve self-actualization.\u003cp\u003e In presenting his theories, he reviews the work of major thinkers, including Kurt Goldstein and his landmark book, \u003ci\u003eHuman Nature in the Light of Psychopathology\u003c\/i\u003e; Charles Darwin; Buddha; and many others. Sassoon explores the answers to key questions: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e - What is society's role in helping individuals move toward self-actualization?\u003cbr\u003e - What benefits would society enjoy if more people achieved their potential?\u003cbr\u003e - What are the main characteristics of a humanist code?\u003cbr\u003e - What can we do to promote humanist values?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e A third volume in this series will establish the conditions required to bring about a world federalism based on humanism. In a changing world with competing ideologies, it is more important than ever to establish the importance of humanist values. In this study, Sassoon describes a step-by-step social arrangement leading to self-actualization for the greatest number of people in society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Sassoon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1491731486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781491731482\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/25\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.40d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joseph Sassoon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445182083327,"sku":"9781491731482","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5656766e-8caf-4daf-a4fb-be250b09f828.jpg?v=1777217057","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-humanist-society-joseph-sassoon-9781491731482","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
