Integrating theory and research through comparative analysis, the author offers a work that helps readers think through the most promising views of personality. Through Maddi's comparative analytic approach, research becomes theory-relevant and theory becomes empirically sound. In the process, the whole person emerges clearly. This edition permits consideration of each theory all in one place. Maddi has simplified the style and vocabulary to make the information clearer and more direct.

Review:

"This is a very useful text for graduate-level courses... Maddi's framework guides students to think critically across theoretical frameworks and serves to provide a coherent and integrating perspective on the field of personality psychology." --Aaron Kivisto, University of Indianapolis
