About This Item
(Novato, CA: Chandler & Sharp, 1988) 0883165422. 227 x 152 mm; pictorial wrappers; pp. (x) + 221, incl. index. Wrappers somewhat rubbed; light crease to bottom fore-corner of lower cover; earlier owner's name signed on half-title; occasional fox spot. Good condition. "I have seen no other book like this anywhere. The authors are bold, erudite and creative in establishing the links between their subject and the basis of the social sciences and humanities: the very concept of Self ... That the authors include not only the conceptual and historical background of this subject but major discussions of methodological concerns, as well as magnificent bibliographic sources, make this book indispensible to teachers, students, paraprofessionals and professionals." - Barbara Myerhoff, University of Southern California .
