The objective of this book is to lead a person towards a positive and integral knowledge of one's own self and growth in maturity.
In Part 1 we study the human person mainly in his/her personal and interior aspects, that is, the rapport that a person has with him/herself (intrapsychic structure), because the first sign of maturity is knowing how to live on the basis of interior convictions and not submitting oneself to the external conditionings.
Part 2 is dedicated to psychodynamic functionality, offers some ideas not only to understand what we do, but why we do what we do; so we deal with motivations and values which are at the origin of our behaviour. The presentation on “values” is a little forceful and it is done purposefully in order to make the specific aim of psychology clear for those who believe that life should have a meaning (whatever it may be), and to understand that growth towards maturity implies the fatigue and joy of conquest.
Thus, it is a book written for educators and parents, but above all for young people who want to be protagonists of their own future. It is a book that offers stimuli and prospectives for efficacious help for formation towards maturity.
