description: This revised, updated second edition of Personality Theories continues to feature the people behind the major theories. To accompany the author's presentation of theorists' lives as well as their contributions to the field of personality, an outstanding pedagogical program separates this book from its peers. Provides a comprehensive introduction to the key personality theorists by combining discussions of the theorists as people with their contributions to the field. Contains chapter opening questions, chapter ending summaries, and essay/critical thinking questions at the end of each chapter to facilitate understanding and studying. In addition, the book includes, in each chapter, sections on diversity issues relating to women, African Americans, Latin Americans, Asian groups, Native Americans, and many others, such as Australian Aborigines. The index lists all of these entries under a separate heading.
