Reviews the book, American Politics and Humanistic Psychology edited by Tom Greening (1984). This book is a collection of articles, most previously published in the Journal of Humanistic Psychology, by many of the leading figures in humanistic psychology, including Carl Rogers, Rollo May, Abraham Maslow, Maurice Friedman, Floyd Matson, Charles Hampden-Turner, and others, concerning fundamental issues for American politics. Greening has grouped them into four cogent themes: the implications of the daimonic aspects of human nature, the relation between personal and political transformation, the problematic of a political elite, and the relevance of humanistic psychology to responsible social action.
