1 in stock
Description
'Religious Thought and the Modern Psychologies' by Don S. Browning examines the relationship between religious thought, psychology, and psychotherapy, questioning the ethical and theological assumptions that underlie modern psychological theories. Browning considers the work of influential figures including Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, B. F. Skinner, Carl Rogers, Erik Erikson, Heinz Kohut, Albert Ellis, Aaron Beck, and Murray Bowen, exploring ideas such as morality, self-realisation, human fulfilment, and obligation. Drawing on hermeneutical philosophy and ethical analysis, the book considers how psychological theories shape conceptions of human nature and meaning, while examining their relationship with religious perspectives. Originally published in 1987, it is a significant work in the dialogue between psychology, theology, ethics, and the social sciences.
