Personality Theory, Second Edition, is an introduction to the major theoretical perspectives that inform contemporary research on personality. Tracing the work of individual theorists within the context of eight paradigms used to explain the origins and organization of human behaviour, author Douglas Crowne provides an even-handed overview of the field.
Having built upon the success of the first edition, Crowne has divided chapters into paradigm parts and provides students with a summary that explains how the theories and theorists presented in the material connect with each paradigm.
