Description:
How did Madonna transform from small-town girl to Material Girl? What drove Lorena Bobbit to her breaking point? Were people like these molded by their environment, or is their something inherent in one's personality that motivates certain behavioral patterns? Friedman and Schustack frame their book around the eight basic aspects of personality, using these principles to show the various ways our human complexity forms from developmental influences, such as biological predispositions, cognitive structures, and situational demands. Vignettes about modern cultural figures, along with substantial integration of cross-cultural and women's issues, build on the field of personality theory to provide a modern view that will challenge and fascinate all readers. Organized from the viewpoint that personality has eight basic aspects: psychoanalytic, ego, biological, behaviorist, cognitive, trait, humanistic, and situational. Psychologists and anyone else interested in issues of personality formation and development.
