What it doesn't seem to lack is a quiet wisdom that flowed from Rogers' many years of experience and sensitivity to his patients. Despite some redundancy, being a collection of papers and presentations from Rogers over many years, "On Becoming A Person": 1) presents a branch of psychotherapy distinct from psychoanalysis ...
