When Gardner Murphy was awarded the Gold Medal Award of the American Psychological Foundation, its highest honor, he was cited for his felicitous writing. He wrote over 200 papers in psychology, parapsychology, and the place of humanity in the universe: theoretical works, research reports, plans and suggestions, insights shared with educators, counselors, health professional and parents--and works of a philosophical bent, which more than any other established his benign dominance of his field. This anthology gives seventeen of his most remarkable papers, which have not lost their place in the forefront of today's literature.
