Psychology of Science
Re-humanization of Science and Medicine
 The
Psychology of Science is a fascinating glimpse of what
science and medicine might be like if we could work to "re-humanize" them.
Maslow contrasts humanistic science with value-free, orthodox science, and
offers a new knowledge paradigm to replace classical "scientific objectivity".
There is a PDF version and an original 1966 hardcover edition available.
