Reviews
"Michael Washburn is considered one of the most authoritative theorists of transpersonal development, and Recentering the Self provides a much-needed supplement to his theory, offering a reexamination of the notion of the ego and its development, first within the general context of the human lifespan and then within the specific context of spiritual life." — Massimo Marraffa, Roma Tre University
