Lowen's books, searchable in seconds
You already know the concepts. What you need is the exact place he wrote them, on the printed page, ready to cite. This is that tool, built on the primary sources rather than summaries of them.
Search a concept, see what comes back
Every match carries its book and page, so a quotation is ready to cite the moment you find it.
Search by exact wording when you have it, or by related meaning when the phrase escapes you.
Straight to the passage, from the source
Most searching means skimming an index, or trusting a summary of what Lowen supposedly said. Lowen Library reads the full text of every book, so you go straight to the passage itself, in his own words, with the term shown where it falls. No paraphrase stands between you and the source.
Search by exact wording when you have it, or by related meaning when the phrase escapes you. Every match carries its book and page, so you always know exactly where a quotation comes from.
For supervision, case notes, papers, and training work, working from the source is the whole point.
Related searches sit one tap away, so a single question can open onto a whole line of thought.
Citations formatted to the page you are reading
From any page, copy a clean citation in APA or MLA, complete with the reference entry, the in text form, and an excerpt with its citation attached. It is formatted to the exact page in front of you, so there is no guessing and no reformatting later.
Drop it into a case note, a slide for supervision, or a paper, and move on. Both forms are structured correctly, so there is nothing to reformat later.

Research is rarely one sitting. Save the searches you return to, collect the passages you cite most, and pick up exactly where you left off, in the reading room or between clients.
Search by meaning

Is this suitable for academic citation
Yes. Every match carries its book and page, and citations are generated in APA and MLA from the edition record, so you cite the exact page you are quoting. Republished editions use both years in the APA in text form, as the style requires.
Which editions are indexed
The nine core books in their Alexander Lowen Foundation eBook editions. Page numbers follow the printed pages of those editions, and each citation names the edition year so your references stay exact.
