This book could easily be retitled:Eeverything you wanted to know about Non-Deterministic Psychology but were afraid to ask.

As Dr. Gerald Epstein, the editor of this collection of cross cultural articles on this topic writes:
In the course of my odyssey exploring new directions in psychology, I have been privileged to meet many fine scientists, philosophers and seekers who shared their visions on a new psychology. Their views of reality were not rooted in the cause and effect - logical, analytic and mechanistic - thinking of the natural scientific model that were the underpinnings of Freudian and dynamic psychology. Instead, they were steeped in the emerging field of the new physics (Kurt Godel), holography, discoveries of left-right cerebral functioning, and oriental meditative practices: All these paradigms shared a non-deterministic, acausal view point of how the universe – from atom to Adam - function in an open system. Here life is not pre-determined by what has happened in the past (linear causality). Rather it is “an undivided flowing movement without borders”; A holographic universe of constant change on a physical (time-space) plane and of revelation on a sacred/spiritual plane. This collection of essays is the fruit of my encounters with remarkable visionaries and clinicians. David Bohm, Ken Wilbur, Ken Phillips, David Shainberg, Swami Dayananda and others present their views of a non-deterministic, acausal psychology in relationship to mental imagery/imagination, healing, Vedanta, Buddhism, I-Ching, myth, dreaming, and clinical applications and research.
