What is a person? Surprisingly little attention is given to this
question in psychology. For much of the past century, psychology
has tended to focus on the systematic study of processes rather
than on the persons who enact and embody them. In contrast to the
reductionist picture of much mainstream theorising, which construes
persons as their mental lives, behaviours or neurophysiological
particulars, The Psychology of Personhood presents persons as
irreducibly embodied and socially situated beings. Placing the
study of persons at the centre of psychology, this book presents
novel insights on the typical, everyday actions and experiences of
persons in relation to each other and to the broader society and
culture. Leading scholars from diverse academic disciplines paint
an integrative portrait of the psychological person within
evolutionary, historical, cultural, developmental and everyday
contexts.
