Autorenporträt

JEAN HOUSTON, Ph.D., co-founded the Foundation for Mind Research near New York City. A graduate of Barnard College, Dr. Houston holds a doctorate in psychology and has served on the faculties of religion, philosophy, and pschology at Columbia, Hunter College, the New School for Social Research, and Marymount College. Since 1964 Dr. Houston and her co-workers at the foundation have pursued an extensive nondrug study of altered states of consciousness, accelerated learning, audiovisual environments, internal imagery processes, alternate cognitive modes, subjective time, biofeedback training, the psychology of the creative process and its induction, and the laboratory study of religious-type experiences. She defines this work as the potentiation of latent human capacities. With her husband, Robert Masters, she has written several books on this and other research.
