Overview

First published in 1953, The Psychology of Personality proposes to give an account of the current knowledge about personality at the time; to describe the ideas used by psychologists in this field, the techniques available, the results obtained, and some of their applications. It begins by considering briefly the meaning of the term personality and goes on to explain how this branch of psychology had come to organize itself, and what was its place in the general history of modern thought. Today it can be read in its historical context. This book is a re-issue originally published in 1953. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
