About this title

Synopsis

Identity and Emotion focuses on the individual development of identity and the processes involved. By working from a dynamic systems perspective the book offers a new and exciting approach to human identity and its development across the lifespan. The contributors to the book are specialists in this new approach, and offer new and challenging ideas on the development of identity as a self-organizing process. The book offers a wealth of new ideas and insights, but also concentrates on the ways these insights can be translated into research.
