Nash, Paul

Journal of Education, v162 n3 p5-17 Sum 1980

The 60s, 70s, and 80s represent, respectively, the thesis, antithesis, and synthesis of the humanistic dialectic. Humanism and humanistic education in the 80s must help us to move from the idea of the isolated self to that of the social, independent, synergetic self. (Author/GC)
