In this highly original and thought-provoking work the late Miller
Mair puts forward his ideas for a new psychology. First published
in 1989, he deals with issues of fundamental importance to the
future of a psychology guided by genuine enquiry and concern rather
than mere professional self-interest. Crossing and re-crossing
boundaries between psychology, psychotherapy and philosophy, and
between 'science' and 'art', he demonstrates the linkages between
the personal and the impersonal, subject and object, inside and
outside, with a daring not previously risked by anyone working in
the area. Dr Mair stresses the importance of a poetic approach in
psychology and psychotherapy, and the need to explore and
understand the nature of psychology through an imaginative freedom
of language. He emphasizes that a poetic awareness and
attentiveness is fundamental to any pursuit of understanding of
ourselves or others. This is a very personal book, concerned with
personal knowledge, but it is meant for anyone who seeks to
understand themselves and others, and what is involved in coming to
such understanding. Focusing on ordinary human experience, and
moving towards literary and artistic modes of expression, the
author invites you to enter in, follow what you think and feel, as
he proposes a radical revision of much that is accepted in
psychology and in psychotherapy.
