Reviews
"Neisser and Jopling's edited volume collects an intelligent, sophisticated, and interdisciplinary set of essays on the self written by a distinguished group of psychologists, anthropologists, linguists, and philosophers....there is much here of interest to sociologists of the self. The Conceptual Self in Context covers a lot of ground in its 13 thoughtful and well-written chapters. This book should be read by sociologists interested in the self."

Synopsis
We all believe certain things about ourselves; take together those beliefs make up our 'self concept'. In this book a prestigious group of psychologists, linguists, anthropologists and philosophers address the basic questions about selves and self-concepts., For years, thinkers have debated the meaning and origin of the self-concept. Among contested issues are how people in different cultures can have sharply different concepts of self, what can be known about the self-concepts of depressives and schizophrenics, how meditation can affect the sense of self, and if there is an inner "self of selves," as James once suggested. In this collection, a prestigious group of psychologists, anthropologists, and philosophers addresses these topics and presents some surprising answers. This is the third and last of the Emory Symposia organized around Ulric Neisser's cognitive theory of self-knowledge; it goes beyond The Perceived Self and The Remembering Self to deal with some of the oldest--as well as some of the newest--psychological and philosophical questions surrounding the concept of self., What is the self-concept and how does it develop? Do people in different cultures have sharply different concepts of self? Can we believe what our informants tell us on this point? What is known about the self-concepts of depressives? of schizophrenics? How does meditation affect the sense of self? Is there an inner 'self of selves' as James once suggested? These are, of course, hotly debated questions in the social sciences. In this book a prestigious group of psychologists, linguists, anthropologists and philosophers addresses these questions and presents some surprising answers. This is the third and last of the Emory Symposia organized around Ulric Neisser's cognitive theory of self-knowledge, it goes beyond The Perceived Self and The Remembering Self to deal with psychological and philosophical questions surrounding the self.

    "tuesdays with Morrie," by Mitch Albom is as pictured and described. Got a great deal on this signed/Inscribed edition! Arrived quickly and safely into my hands. The book was placed in a mylar sleeve, then placed in a tough, bubble envelope, then in a sturdy box. Fort Knox in a Box! So happy to add this to my growing book collection. This classic should be required reading. The lessons on life, service & empathy are beautiful. Thank you for your care & attention. !!!Seller Highly Recommended!!!
