Childhood and human nature: the development of personality - 19

Human behaviour is complex, so that understanding ourselves and others calls for both objective and subjective viewpoints, as well as a flexible appreciation of human development over time.

In this book Dr Sula Wolff gives a comprehensive account of the major aspects of personality development in childhood.

She reports research findings and presents developmental theories in their historical context, stressing the interplay between biological and cultural influences on development.
