About This Item
Albany, NY: State University of New York Press, 1994. 2nd Edition . Paperback. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; In this book, Nelson brings the lofty ideas of transpersonal psychology down to earth so they can be applied in a practical way to explain the bizarre effects of insanity on the human mind. Drawing on a vast knowledge of Eastern philosophy and mainstream neuropsychiatry, he heals the split between orthodox and alternative views iwth a comprehensive approach that goes beyond both. Starting where R.D. Laing and Thomas Szasz left off, Nelson revises and expands their radical views in light of modern brain science. He then turns to ancient tantric yoga for a synthesis that weaves brain, psyche, and spirit into a compelling new conception of mental illness.
