Synopsis
Description By CreateSpace: For those who have studied psychology in an educational setting and for professionals employed as psychologists, the way an individual thinks and behaves is relatively simple to understand. However, for the vast majority of people in countries spanning the globe, an in-depth knowledge and understanding of psychology is limited, likely due to the complexity of the field. Psyche and Personality, an informative and analytical text penned by engineer-turned-author Hani Montan, discusses several unique aspects of psychology in terms that are easily comprehendible to those who are not scholars or practicing professionals. From detailed information about the wide array of personality disorders that affect people of all ages, races, and ethnicities to the roles that human relations, socioeconomics, and education play in the development of such disorders, Psyche and Personality informs readers of the dangers posed by a culture that lacks a sense of social intelligence. When readers embark on the journey toward an understanding of psychology, they will discover the basic components of psychology and have an opportunity to better understand why developing emotional and social intelligences is so important for every human being. By explaining the types of personality disorders that are most common and examining the detrimental results that these problems have on society, Psyche and Personality also discusses several ways in which some of the most prominent issues in the twenty-first century could be prevented if emotional and social intelligences were properly developed. Unlike most of its counterparts, Psyche and Personality provides an uncomplicated discussion that is both interesting and useful in situations that arise in everyday life. For those with a desire to understand the development of personality disorders and the impact that psychological issues such as narcissism, inferiority, and insecurity have on society, it is a must-read.
About the Author
Hani Montan is an Australian citizen; a retired civil engineer and currently is a nonfiction writer. In 1966 Montan earned a Master of Science degree in civil and industrial engineering. He has travelled extensively, including studying and working in Iraq, Russia, Algeria, and Australia. To keep abreast of social, managerial, and technical developments, he has studied many subjects, including project management, public relations, environmental protection, social and political science, psychology, human relations, business administration, and philosophy. Montan worked at Sydney Water as a project engineer and group leader and owned and managed a retail business. It's his engineering instinct, however, that embodies "the power of observation" and gives him the capacity to come to logical conclusions and offer simplified solutions to many problems. Furthermore, the experience he has gained from working with and managing people over many years and his long interest in politics and social studies have given him the motivation to write about many different subjects that might be useful to many readers. In this book, Psyche and Personality, he makes a genuine attempt to demystify the subject of psychology to benefit the general reader. Besides studying psychology, his life experience taught him a lot more, which inspired him to write about and simplify such a complex subject. This book deals with the components of personality and personality disorders, such as emotional intelligence, social intelligence, narcissism, insecurity, and inferiority complexes. The book also deals with the deficiency of school education, some aspects of mental health, and other relevant subjects that affect the social environment, such as violence, bullying, drug and alcohol abuse, and family relationships. His other books (Thorny Opinion, Dads Gags, Israel vs. America vs. the World, and Death by Choice versus Religious Dogma) are available from Amazon.com and other retailers in both paperback and e-book formats.
