Abstract

The title of this book immediately impressed me, because I agree with it, especially the first part. As I have discussed in the fourth and latest edition of Foundations of Psychodrama. I think that our image of God-whether viewed as a harsh judge, a capricious king, or the unending source of creativity and spontaneity arising within the soul of every being-affects the way we feel about ourselves, others, the world, and how we should behave.
