Abstract
More than anyone else Carl Rogers knew in a deep and profound way what is the real meaning of the person-centered approach and its potential to unite human beings coming from all kinds of different backgrounds. The following chapter is intended to let readers experience the way Rogers respected and encountered human beings regardless of culture, race, religion, nationality, social status, and so on valuing their/our differences to the core of human imagination.
