ATMAN PROJECT
by Wilber, Ken
ISBN: 0835607305
Publisher: National Book Network
THE ATMAN PROJECT is widely hailed as the first
psychology that succeeds in uniting East and West,
conventional and contemplative, orthodox and
mystical, into a single, coherent framework. This
essential introduction to Ken Wilber`s ideas on
the evolution of human consciousness features
a new foreword linking this work to Wilber`s
current thinking.
`... a brilliant synthesis of most of the major schools
of Western psychology and many aspects of the great
religious traditions. The Atman Project is an important
landmark in the history of psychology.`
-- Dr. Stanislav Grof, author of
The Holotropic Mind and Spiritual
Emergency (with Christina Grof)
`No one -- not even Jung -- has done as much as
Wilber to open Western psychology to the durable
insights of the world`s wisdom traditions.`
-- Dr. Huston Smith, author of
The World`s Religions and
Beyond the Post-Modern Mind
`Wilber will likely do for consciousness what Freud
did for psychology.`
-- Dr. Jean Houston, author of
A Mythic Life, Manual for the
Peacemaker, and Public Like a Frog
Philosopher Ken Wilber has been mapping the territory
