Features: More than a quarter of a century has passed since Maslow's death, yet there is no sign of a decline in his reputation and prestige. In my opinion, this means that the era of Maslow has not yet arrived, and the significant value of his theories and doctrines belongs to the future. In the coming 21st century, their significance will be fully demonstrated. If I were to explain what contribution this is, I would say that this contribution is Maslow's most important description of human nature since Freud. When Maslow emphasized that all healthy people have peak experiences, and that these experiences are not profound or mysterious but rather ordinary parts of life, he provided a new perspective for understanding human nature.
