Reading Maslow is alive, like experiencing a dialogue with a text. This article explores this writer’s response to Maslow’s narrative style, as well as to his powerful content. Using a personal narrative style that situates the reader in a Jewish context during the most powerful time of the year, the writer responds to Maslow as a Jewish prophet who prophecizes some of the dead-ends of the mechanistic science that he critiques in “Toward a Humanistic Biology.” His prophecies are startlingly lucid and applicable for what we are seeing in the world today
