Self-Actualization and the Radical Gospel

Theology

“Louis Roy does a masterful job of debunking the common notion that self-transcendence and self-actualization are intrinsically opposed, and rather suggests that a proper understanding of each reveals their intrinsic and dynamic complementarity. In doing so, he explores a range of thinkers—from Aristotle and Aquinas to Lonergan and Kristeva—in an accessible way that yet honors their depth and subtlety. A rich resource for anyone entrusted with the care of souls, minds, and hearts.”
