PERSONALITY is a comprehensive and accessible textbook designed for undergraduate students in two- and four-year colleges, without requiring any background in psychology. This empirically-driven text provides a fresh perspective on classic topics, such as the humanistic and psychoanalytic approaches, while also exploring emerging topics, such as genetics, culture, and the self.

With its engaging writing style and clear explanations, this text compares and contrasts major theories of personality and provides insight into personality processes and dynamics.
