Pierre Janet

[Neil Hucker]

Dear Patricia, at this moment I am more interested in Janet's "Hierachy of 
Action Tendencies" and I have only seen references in his article titles to 
his approach to feelings.

>>Dear Neil, thanks for bringing up the name of Pierre Janet. Googling him

>>Adler or Jung (who were characterized by the mainstream as merely 
>>disaffected former disciples with a father complex rather than mature 
>>colleagues with independent and often valid insights), Assagioli 
>>(psychosynthesis), Reich, Adolf Meyer, Janet, and so forth.
