Transpersonal Psychology concerns the study of those states, processes, and events in which people experience a deeper sense of who they are, or a greater sense of connectedness to nature, other people, or the spiritual dimension.

It will be of special interest to students, teachers, and practitioners, while its accessible style will appeal to all seeking greater understanding of this fascinating and challenging field.

Reviews for Shadow, Self, Spirit: Essays in Transpersonal Psychology

Shadow, Self, Spirit is one of the best-written and most comprehensive books on transpersonal psychology that I have come across. -- Louis Hoffman * PsycCRITIQUES (APA Review of Books) * Michael Daniels has succeeded in writing a thoroughly mulled mead hoping to inform if not enliven a sophisticated reader's appreciation of so-called mysticism. -- A.P. Bober * Metapsychology * Daniels covers a wide variety of subjects, ranging from holism and integration to Maslow's advocacy of self-actualisation, transcendence, and modes of mystical experience ... Daniels's [book] can be enjoyed chapter by independent chapter. -- Beta Bishop * The Scientific and Medical Network *
