About this title

From Library Journal:

Psychotherapist Muriel James, author of several titles on transactional analysis including the classic Born To Win (Addison-Wesley, 1971), and son John contend that there are seven basic spiritual urges that shape human existence and define goals: the urge to live, understand, create, enjoy, connect, transcend, and the urge for freedom. The authors explain the ways in which each human urge manifests itself, thus defining the spiritual paths people choose to explore. To help readers initiate their own spiritual search, quotes for contemplation and simple exercises in self-exploration are given at the end of each chapter. The James's present theories of human existence and spirituality that, although aimed at the general audience, will be accessible only to the most intellectual readers. Consider for comprehensive psychology collections or where such literature is in demand.
