The Development of the Social Self by Mark Bennett
Drawing upon the perspective of social identity theory, this book is concerned with the acquisition and development of children's social identities.Reading this book is like participating in a seminar discussion that you don't want to end: the ideas and the evidence are illuminating and engaging - Paul Webley, University of Exeter, UK
This is a momentous and impressive book. It is a very long time since a social developmental text has offered such rich developmental observations for social psychologists and such powerful theoretical analysis for developmentalists. The result is a wonderful intellectual synergy that ensures that this volume will be seen as a landmark for researchers and students in both areas. Moreover, for psychology as a whole, the book is an all too rare demonstration of the way in which the fusion of methods and insights from two fields can energise and enrich both. It addresses questions at the very heart of our discipline and provides novel and compelling answers that cannot fail to engage a very broad band of readers. - Alex Haslam, Professor of Social Psychology, University of Exeter, UK
