Abstract
This article discusses Maurice Friedman's role in the history of psychotherapy and presents some of his thoughts on the human image and psychotherapy. There is no actual school of dialogic psychotherapy; nor is there a movement. But there is a significant influence both in the United States and in Europe that has grown from the work of Maurice Friedman and Martin Buber. This article draws on Friedman's major written works and points forward to three new books that were specifically focused on psychology and psychotherapy. I have drawn upon my own 15-year association with Maurice Friedman here, including my doctoral dissertation and the introductions that I wrote for two of those three new works. This is an initial description of the impact of Friedman's work as it affects psychotherapy.
