5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, fascinating study, April 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Becoming William James (Hardcover)

Psychologically informed, but with no psychobabble -- respectful of James, and of other members of that famous family -- but not uncritical. This is a terrific biography, which deserves many readers.
