Scott Peck, medic psihiatru cu o îndelungată experienţă în psihoterapie, vorbeşte despre lucruri fundamentale legate de evoluţia actuală a umanităţii: gândire, conştiinţă, cunoaştere şi evoluţie spirituală, alegeri făcute în viaţa personală sau într-un cadru organizat (instituţie, societate), dar şi despre „ştiinţa“ lui Dumnezeu. Om de ştiinţă el însuşi, autorul caută, în această carte, să înţeleagă misterele Creaţiei, fiinţa umană ca parte a acesteia, calea spre credinţă şi spre păstrarea ei.

Sie zeigt, wie es Menschen verändert, wenn sie ihre tief verankerten Überzeugungen erkennen und hinterfragen.

That love does not control seems obvious to many people. And yet the temptation to control—often with good motives — is strong. The long-term results of yielding to this temptation damage everyone. Contributors to Love Does Not Control explore uncontrolling love and a vision of God as uncontrolling. They do so from their perspectives as therapists, psychologists, and counselors. Writers ponder what uncontrolling love might mean for human healing. Open and relational theology operates as the underlying framework for most contributors. That theology fits nicely with the belief that love ...
