A professor at Brandeis University in the 1960s (I studied with him there), Maslow's approach to psychology was simple, yet revolutionary. He studied the people in this world whom we most admire, then described their characteristics. Among the most important of these qualities are the capacity to shape reality, appreciating the moment, focusing beyond oneself, humor and celebration, and loving and being loved. Using the results of Maslow's studies as a framework, this book demonstrates -with stories, quotations, and photographs - how each of us can lead a more rewarding life. ; Michael Lewis is an orthopedic surgeon at the Illinois Bone and Joint Institute. He has been Chief of Staff at NorthShore University HealthSystem, Skokie Hospital. He also was named best teacher of the year at Rush University Medical Center. He has also been an orthopedic consultant to the Chicago White Sox baseball team, the Chicago Wolves hockey team, and the Chicago Bulls basketball team, with whom he earned two championship rings. ; Michael Lewis started taking photographs more than forty years ago when he was stationed in the United Kingdom as an orthopedic surgeon in the United States Air Force. At that time he was able to travel throughout Europe, as well as East Africa, Nepal and India. Since then his passion for photography has grown exponentially. ; SIGNED by author Lewis on the half-title ; FINE.…
