Integral Psychology | Free Book
The goal of an “integral psychology” is to honor and embrace every legitimate aspect of human consciousness under one roof. Drawing on hundreds of sources—Eastern and Western, ancient and modern—Wilber creates a psychological model that includes waves of development, streams of development, states of consciousness, and the self, and follows the course of each from subconscious to self-conscious to superconscious.
Included in the book are charts correlating over a hundred psychological and spiritual schools from around the world, including Kabbalah, Vedanta, Plotinus, Teresa of Ávila, Aurobindo, Theosophy, and modern theorists such as Jean Piaget, Erik Erikson, Jane Loevinger, Lawrence Kohlberg, Carol Gilligan, Erich Neumann, and Jean Gebser. Integral Psychology is Wilber's most ambitious psychological system to date and is already being called a landmark study in human development.

"Wilber's unprecedented work offers diamond-like clarity, brilliance,
and many-faceted reflection, and his writing speaks with an
unencumbered authority."— NAPRA Review
"One of
the most important thinkers of our age, and certainly the leading
authority in the field of transpersonal psychology . . . The scope of
his scholarship and of his understanding of the psychological
development of the individual from early body awareness to the higher
(and ultimately non-dual) experiential levels is quite simply
breathtaking."—The Middle Way
"The first truly
comprehensive map of the human mind."—Larry Dossey, author of Be
Careful What You Pray For . . . You Just Might Get It

working at the integration of Eastern and Western wisdom literature
with such depth or breadth of mind and heart as he."—Robert Kegan,
Professor of Education, Harvard University Graduate School of
Education, and author of In Over Our Heads
"In
ages to come, historians may well view Wilber's work as the pivotal
insight that legitimized the return of consciousness and spirit to our

debt."—T. George Harris, founding editor, Psychology Today and
American Health
"In a single publication
Wilber strides over the entire history of psychology to create new and
comprehensive strategies for human survival in the next
millennium."—Don Beck, coauthor of Spiral Dyanmics
