Changing the Self by Thomas M Brinthaupt

This book examines the varieties of self-exchange and factors that can influence it. It takes a much-needed step toward linking the concerns of the academic self-researcher and the consumer of research pertaining to changing the self. Throughout the book, understanding and accounting for change in the self emerges as a vitally important concern across a wide range of human experience.

"This book represents an interesting effort to examine the concept of self from a variety of different disciplinary and professional perspectives and to bring together in a single work some of the obviously rich diversity in thinking that this concept has attracted

"The topic is very significant, especially at a time when individuals in our society are only beginning to see some of the results of preoccupation of self, as well as insufficient attention to it. As a concept of scholarly interest, self is beginning to receive attention well beyond the traditional communities of psychiatry and clinical psychology. The volume makes that breadth of interest apparent." — Dennis S. Gouran, The Pennsylvania State University
