This copy is Good; the text is clear, bright, but with small marks and bits of marginalia in very light pencil on about 5 of the book's 256 pages; binding is tight, but edges show wear and pages show age. The front and back covers are VG, intact, including color and design, but creasing on spine, wear on edges and corners signs of age. We have a five star rating because of our fulfilment success and because our descriptions are accurate.

About this title

Synopsis

Among the topics covered are: Freud's discovery that the human mind can only be studied thru a partnership between observer & observed; how clinical evidence is made up of a unique mixture of subjective & objective; an observation on the way issues of identity affect not only individuals but classes of people; & an examination of the links between ego formation & institutions & traditions. Erikson also discusses the origins of ethics & looks at psychiatry as the pragmatic Western version of the universal journey to self-awareness.

About the Author
