This best-selling book introduces and summarizes the major theories of personality and assumes that the best understanding of personality derives from a variety of viewpoints. Thus, theories representing the psychoanalytic, sociocultural, trait, learning, sociobiological, and existential-humanistic paradigms are offered as different -- yet equally valid ways of approaching the study of personality. Presenting the major theories of personality in a comprehensive, unbiased fashion, this book introduces the rich history of psychology and provides information to help readers understand their own lives and their relationships with other people. The fifth edition of The Introduction to Theories of Personality has been updated and revised to include an expanded evaluation for each theory that includes a sample of empirical research supporting or refuting the theories and a summary of the criticisms and contributions of the theory. In addition, many of the theories and biographical sketches have been updated and expanded An essential reference for every professional in psychology.
