Why do we, as adults, have the personality characteristics we do?
No one explanation is accepted by all; however, in this greatly
expanded version of his earlier book, Personality Development in
Adulthood, Wrightsman helps us understand and organize the three
broad theoretical approaches to explain psychological changes
during the period from adolescence to the onset of late adulthood.
Each of these approaches--early formation theories, stage theories,
and the dialectical approach--are described and contrasted in order
to help us more easily compare our experiences with those of
others. Case histories, relevant current events, and boxed inserts
are used throughout the book to illustrate important concepts in a
thought-provoking, lively manner. Written in a compelling,
non-technical style, the book is accessible to students and
interested readers from all disciplines, especially psychology,
clinical and developmental psychology, aging, family studies,
sociology, gender studies and nursing.
