	At Google: People as Living Things —The Psychology of Perceptual Control ... a feast of recognition where you say that integrating PCT into your thinking does not come overnight but takes years.

	At Google: The Method of Levels— How to do Psychotherapy Without Getting in the Way "I've just finished the Method of Levels, and I'm astonished, delighted, and inspired. I was a psychotherapist for many years, using a variety of approache..., and while my clients were often happy with the results, I frequently wasn't. My fundamental dissatisfaction arose from the fact that I never knew WHY we were successful when we were, and what had gone wrong or failed to go right when we weren't.

	At Google: Management and Leadership: Insight for Effective Practice When i first learned of PCT about seven years ago, I read everything I could get my hands on and your articles, for me, most clearly explained PCT. Somehow, your unique use of language, (perhaps it's more humanizing?) allowed me to understand it better, whereas much that was written (that seems to be changing) is so technical....Your explanations revealed PCT almost immediately for me. — David Hubbard, LMHC	Book detail, this site

	At Google: Casting Nets and Testing Specimens — Two Grand Methods of Psychology The spring semester is nearly half completed. I am using your book in two classes.

So it is. —Tom Bourbon, 1991	Book detail, this site
