Providing an introduction to the main viewpoints in the field, this book emphasizes the continuity between contemporary social theories and the living experiences that produced them. The author explores the biographical backgrounds of Freud, Mead, Lewin, and Skinner while depicting the interrelationships and limitations of their conflicting perspectives.
I got this book to help me get started with more detailed studies of Lewin and Mead. The book reads well and provides just enough background to learn the essence of each theorist's work. Light, quick, easy read. It served its purpose.
