“Guidano provides psychologists, and therapists in particular, a fresh way to conceptualize the role of affect in human experience. ”

—Contemporary Psychology


“This is a creative and thought-provoking work, rich in theoretical ideas and clinical insights, which are well illustrated with extensive case material. At the heart of Guidano's approach lies a passionate and rigorous commitment to a constructivist epistemology and to a view of human beings as self-organizing, self-determining agents, capable of ongoing growth and differentiation. A stimulating and original contribution.”
