⚁  5.1 Introduction

⚂ 5.1.1 This page will develop and explore applications of TPD. In a chapter in his 1970 book, Dąbrowski outlined nine applications of TPD. These include: psychology; psychiatry and psychotherapy; education; philosophy of man and ethics; philosophy of science and humanities; history; sociology, cultural anthropology and social philosophy; politics; and pastoral guidance. Instead of summarizing these points, I provide a PDF of the chapter. a PDF of the chapter. We are only now beginning to explore applications beyond gifted education.

⚁  5.2      TPD and the Gifted.

⚁  5.3 Counseling the gifted.

I have asked several experts in the field to contribute anything they want to this section, and they have thus far declined.

⚁  5.4 Psychotherapy.

Although many therapists and coaches purport to practice Dabrowski based therapy, his major book on psychotherapy in English remains unpublished and undistributed.
