Hilgard on Ahsen
Ahsen invites the reader to enrich the concept of the image well beyond any prior concept he or she may have had. The principles of this approach rely on bright visual images and the feeling of "reality" they project inside the mind, so that inner and outer realities are bound together in the body of a single image operation. Dr. Ahsen has given an imaginative and provocative account. As Ahsen's study establishes important links between various constellations. . .a far reaching clinical interpretation of the underlying motivational principles emerges.
Ernest R. Hilgard, Stanford University
