'A valuable contribution to the burgeoning literature on the social dimensions of selfhood. In addition to providing an extensive, well-researched overview of the wide variety of theories that have explored the social formation of personality and beyond - Burkitt seeks ultimately to formulate his own position on the matters at hand, one that is able to "move beyond dichotomous and dualistic visions of society and individuals.... Burkitt deserves praise for the clarity with which he presents his overview of the relevant theories, for the cogency with which he offers his own critiques of these theories, and for his commitment to thinking dialectically about the self.... For those who wish to bolster or articulate further their own beliefs about selfhood, whether in the direction of sociality or privacy, [the book] will provide a useful means to do so... also provides some solid "ammunition" for continuing the battle in question' - Theory & Psychology 'Although scholars recognize the need for alternatives to the long dominant concept of the self contained individual, little progress has been made toward such development. Burkitt's lucid book provides an essential prolegomenon to such a project. Burkitt offers a discerning discussion...the volume is essential reading for anyone concerned with this challenging problem' - Choice 'Explores a wealth of literature on the social nature of individuality. Essentially, its message is that society and self are intertwined in important ways... an excellent book. It deals with complex material in a clear and readable manner, laying out the rationales behind many different theories with great clarity and precision. Although it challenges many assumptions of traditional social psychology, it is a masterpiece of scholarly analysis and a book that should be read by anyone interested in either personality or social behavior' - Contemporary Psychology 'This stimulating and thoughtful book provides an extremely good review of the literature on the social formation of personality, as well as representing a significant advance in such theorizing... a very valuable contribution to its field. By following Burkitt, sociological auto/biographers can now treat their subjects as fully social beings whose personalities are formed through the full range of social relations and interdependencies' - Sociology, 'A valuable contribution to the burgeoning literature on the social dimensions of selfhood.

Burkitt deserves praise for the clarity with which he presents his overview of the relevant theories, for the cogency with which he offers his own critiques of these theories, and for his commitment to thinking dialectically about the self.... For those who wish to bolster or articulate further their own beliefs abo, What is the relationship between society and the individual? To answer this often-asked question, one must have a basic understanding of the individual personality. Social Selves provides an interdisciplinary overview of theories of social formation of personality--from symbolic interactionism and ethogenics, to poststructuralism, Marxism, developmental psychology, and figurational sociology. Through these theories, Burkitt skillfully highlights the persistent dichotomy between society and the individual. He challenges the popular view of human selves as isolated individuals trapped within their own selves, and offers an incisive account of personality as created within social relations. Drawing on insights from sociology, psychology, linguistics, and philosophy, Burkitt argues that society and the self are essentially intertwined, with every element of the self interconnected through social identity.Social Selves draws you out of the "solitary" self theory and into the interlaced relationship between self and society. It inspires academics and students alike in social theory, social psychology, and developmental psychology."Although scholars recognize the need for alternatives to the long-dominant concept of the self-contained individual, little progress has been made toward such development. Burkitts lucid book provides an essential prolegomenon to such a project. After a brief historical look at the monadic view of self and its shortcomings, he undertakes a systematic discussion of major 20th-century theories offering means of understanding the self as inextricably linked to others. . . . the volume is essential reading for anyone concerned with this challenging problem."--Choice"This stimulating and thoughtful book provides an extremely good reivew of literature on the social formation of personality. . . . [It] makes a very valuable contribution to its field. By following Burkitt, sociological auto/biographers can now treat their subjects as fully social beings whose personalities are formed through the full range of social relations and interdependencies."--Sociology

    This delivery was earliest date! Condition, value, quality - all as described. (My mistake was not requiring the publishing date to be 1958. This was 1977.) This IS a Viking Portable Library copy of Dante's Divine Comedy in English, translated by Laurence Binyon, but it is with a cover DIFFERENT from what was shown. The tracking number was listed as from "UPS", but should have been listed as from "USPS." Contact with this seller alleviated tracking issues. I recommend this seller! Thank you!

    I purchased two books from the same seller; both were accurately advertised in product write ups. Seller responded promptly and securely packaged both books for swift arrival. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this seller.

    Arrived 13 days after purchase. Digipak 3 CD came in brown paper packaging coated on the inside. Not much protection for cardboard digipack, somehow it arrived in near perfect condition. Could have used some bubble wrap /sturdy cardboard. Tracking gave no information. Messaged them & they assured me it was on it's way. Location reads Florida. They ship from all over / my package read Jamaica, NY. Got a 3 CD Deluxe Edition in GREAT CONDITION at BARGAIN PRICE ! Nervous ride/Happy ending 😀👍
