Personality by Daniel Cervone
Forty years since its original publication, Personality: Theory and Research, 11 th edition , still maintains the overall goals of the original text, despite a complete update in content to keep with the changes that have occurred in the field. The text aims to present the major theoretical perspectives on personality through contemporary research and case studies while highlighting how theory and research inform one another. Rich in case material, the 11 th edition upholds the texts long-standing tradition of presenting the subject matter objectively and without bias, encouraging readers to observe the evidence and come to their own conclusions.
The authors seek to enhance the coverage of contemporary research findings in the field, with chapters streamlined to offer balanced coverage of competing theories( Times Higher Education, November 2010) Though revised often and deeply over the past 40 years, say Cervone (U. of Illinois-Chicago) and Pervin (emeritus, Rutgers U.), the psychology textbook still presents the major theoretical perspectives on personality, integrates theory with research and case material, and provides the basis for comparing the theories.
