Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This completely re-written and re-titled edition extends to over 700 pages and includes a more detailed personal and professional history, an evaluation of the Wisconsin years and a full account of the last decade of Rogers' life. The years that followed the publication of the first edition of Carl Rogers' biography in 1979 turned out to be one of the most important periods of his career. Until now this work has not been widely known. Now, more than a quarter of a century after the first edition, Kirschenbaum has added deeper understanding of Rogers' contributions to psychology, the helping professions and society. On a personal level, access to recently revealed private papers tells us much more about Carl Rogers the man than was known to many of his closest associates. This much-anticipated second edition reflects a wiser and more balanced perspective of his subject. Now fully referenced, this is The Life and Work of Carl Rogers - no more, no less.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 687-698) and index.
