According to psychologist Abraham Maslow, clients progress through a hierarchy of needs that begins with physiological needs and ends with self-actualization. According to author Robert Helgoe, the process of recovery follows the same hierarchy. Clients enter recovery because they need to survive. When they maintain recovery because they wish to thrive, they have taken an important step toward self-actualization. Hierarchy of Recovery explores these principles in an engaging discussion. Tools such as personal inventories and checklists help you pinpoint where your clients are within the hi

Hierarchy in the Forest The Evolution of Egalitarian Behavior Christopher Boehm Are humans by nature hierarchical or egalitarian?

The political flexibility of our species is formidable: we can be quite egalitarian, we can be quite
