A bold reimagining of Maslow's famous hierarchy of needs--and new insights for realizing your full potential and living your most creative, fulfilled, and connected life.

When psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman first discovered Maslow's unfinished theory of transcendence, sprinkled throughout a cache of unpublished journals, lectures, and essays, he felt a deep resonance with his own work and life. In this groundbreaking book, Kaufman picks up where Maslow left off, unraveling the mysteries of his unfinished theory, and integrating these ideas with the latest research on attachment, connection, creativity, love, purpose and other building blocks of a life well lived.

Kaufman's new hierarchy of needs provides a roadmap for finding purpose and fulfillment--not by striving for money, success, or "happiness," but by becoming the best version of ourselves, or what Maslow called self-actualization. While self-actualization is often thought of as a purely individual pursuit, Maslow believed that the full realization of potential requires a merging between self and the world. We don't have to choose either self-development or self-sacrifice, but at the highest level of human potential we show a deep integration of both. Transcend reveals this level of human potential that connects us not only to our highest creative potential, but also to one another.

With never-before-published insights and new research findings, along with exercises and opportunities to gain insight into your own unique personality, this empowering book is a manual for self-analysis and nurturing a deeper connection not only with our highest potential but also with the rest of humanity.

*Includes a PDF of growth challenges to begin your personal journey, as well as seven principles for becoming a whole person.

Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman succeeds in what he intends to do spectacularly. Not only he takes us along with him into the journey of transcendence far beyond Self-Actualisation, which most of us associate, rather erroneously with Maslow; but he also takes us through the discovery, exploration, love, purpose right into Transcendance, the unique integrative oneness with the rest of the humanity, and more importantly, with everything in the Universe!

It's inspiring & exhilarating! ... and that's an understatement!

Transcendental!
