This text is organized in a way that allows the reader to examine each personality theory in the context in which the theorist lived. The authors provide a historical context and present the antecedents that helped to shape each theorist's own personal growth. Students began to understand how and why psychological theory was shaped during a particular period in history and the disciplines that provide the framework of theory development. Each theorist is presented as a person whose life and experiences contributed to their subjective and objective methods used in the development of their paarticular theory. The reader is encouraged to crtical evaluate the theory and the theorists within an historical context. and to engage in self examination as well. It is an excelent text for students who are beganning to study theorys of personality.

The book arrived early and in better-than-advertised condition (did the previous owner even read it?). Excellent service and product.

There was some highlighting and I was disappointed with that; however, I cannot recall if the seller stated this or not and it may have been an oversight on my part. I normally do not order books with highlights if it was stated. Book was delivered quickly. The covering was in great condition.
