This book is the 1962 Yearbook of the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD), conceived as a bridge between the learned disciplines of the social sciences on the one hand and the applied field of public school endeavor on the other. The Yearbook Committee was charged with the task of examining current theory about the adequate personality with an eye to its implications for educational thought and practice. Four authors, outstanding in the field, were asked to prepare descriptions of self-actualizing persons. These four persons were Early C. Kelley, Abraham H. Maslow, Carl Rogers, and Arthur W. Combs. Their papers comprise four chapters in the book. The next 10 chapters, which discuss the papers, each begin with pertinent concepts from the papers and discuss these concepts regarding implications for numerous aspects of educational thought and practice.
