Description

Anand Paranjpe's Self and Identity in Modern Psychology and Indian Thought is a fascinating explanation and exploration of personal identity concepts in the cross-cultural context of Western and Eastern traditions - detailing the theories of Erik H. Erikson and Advaita Vedanta as illustrative of Western and Eastern voices, respectively. An interdisciplinary range of contemporary perspectives of self are also examined including univocalism, relativism, and pluralism, with an emphasis placed on cognitive, emotional psychological, religious, and aesthetic considerations among others.
