...these two books [The Resourceful Self and Still Growing] offer useful insights into Erikson's thinking, and a fresh way of presenting Erikson's commitment to the truth of the healing power of self-knowledge, seen through a freudian lens. -Anne Holmes, Church Times, 16th September 2016

Capps closes with Weldon Johnson's poem on 'The Creation' telling us that God still felt lonely for the first five days of creation....
