Human Potentialities: The Challenge and the PromiseHerbert Arthur Otto The first six papers in this collection were originally presented at the American Psychological Association's annual meeting in 1966 in New York City, as a part of a symposium of the same name (Human Potentialities: The Challenge and the Promise). The six symposium members made some changes and additions in their presentations. The additional papers are also original contributions by scientists and pioneers in the forefront of that growing edge, called the human potentialities movement. |
