Condition: BRAND NEW
ISBN: 9780470087657
Year: 2007
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc (US)
Pages: 592
Description:
This Eighth Edition reflects the new developments within
personality psychology, and gives the student a picture of the
field as a cumulative, integrative science that builds on its rich
past and now allows a much more coherent view of the whole
functioning individual in the social world. This revision,
subtitled: Toward an Integrative Science of the Person, is
committed to making that integration, and its practical
applications and personal relevance to everyday life, even more
clear and compelling for our students.
In this new edition the focus is placed on distilling how
findings at each of the six major levels of analysis of personality
(trait-disposition, biological, psychodynamic-motivational,
behavioral-conditioning, phenomenological-humanistic, and
social-cognitive) still speak to and inform each other, and
how they add to the current state of the science and its continuing
growth.
