It's Not Your Fault; It's the Structure: How Structured Psychology Explains Who You Are and Why You Think, Feel, and Do the Things You Do

Who you are-the person you are becoming every day-is like no other. But just like everyone else, you are the way you are for one fundamental reason:

You are logically structured.

For fifty years, research psychologist Rogers Follansbee, PhD tested a claim most of psychology has never dared to make: Human behavior isn't a disorder to be diagnosed, but a logical system to be understood. This system holds true for every person, in every relationship, 100 percent of the time. The result is Structured Psychology, and its central discovery is the Structure, a set of relational rules as inescapable as gravity.

It's Not Your Fault questions the common misconception that your struggles are personal failures or something you need to fix. Follansbee exposes the dynamics behind those struggles: why contradictions destabilize us, what we often do to combat the resulting instability, and why your self-image isn't completely under your control.

This isn't another self-help book with a five-step formula. It's the logic underneath all of them. Your struggles were never personal failings. They were the logical outcomes of the Structure of existence in action.

Rogers Follansbee, PhD, graduated in 1968 from the Universidad de Navarra (Pamplona, Spain) with a master's degree in philosophy. In 1971, he acquired a master's degree in clinical psychology from the Universidad de Madrid. From 1969 to 1974, during his post-graduate studies at the Universidad de Navarra, he instructed undergraduates in "The History of Psychology" and "Psycho Diagnostics." He also held graduate seminars where his theory was discussed in detail to small groups of undergraduates. In 1974, Dr. Follansbee successfully defended his dissertation, "La Teoría de la Relacionabilidad," and was awarded a summa cum laude qualification.In 1980, Dr. Follansbee and his family moved to the United States, where he continued to develop Relationability (now Structured Psychology). He and his wife Carmen now split their time between homes in Southern California and northern Spain.
