19 Clark, Kenneth B. Pathos Of Power

~ When Clark was the President of the American Psychological Association, he called upon science to develop a psycho-technology that could monitor the emotional stability of world leaders and curb their aggressive instincts. He was denounced as proposing a peace pill and wanting to turn man into a vegetable. In this book he traces the origin, the growing implications, and the conclusions of his theory of power, and his conviction that the grasping of power is man's vain delusionary attempt to escape the fragility of the human ego, to deny its transitoriness. ; 8 1/2 x 6 7/8"; xviii, + 188 pp
