Over the past fifteen years there has been a slowly increasing recognition by be havioral scientists that man is functioning at less than ten per cent of his potential. Among those who subscribe to this hypothesis are Gardner Murphy, Abraham Maslow, Erich Fromm, Carl Rogers, and Margaret Mead.1 There are also indications that many professionals in psychology, psychiatry, and social work are seeking applications for the newly-emerging concepts from research in human potentialities. The ground swell of a movement centering on the study of healthy man and his optimum functioning can be discerned.2 Even more important, we are witnessing the emergence of a new image of man. It is an image of hope with man as the shaper of his boundless possibilities, limited only by the scope of his imagination and the extent of his investment in self-realization.
