Description

"This volume synthesizes significant data from neuroscience and other scientific disciplines into a comprehensive, empirically based, and clinically useful conceptual model for understanding personality. The book illuminates the ways that the brain's organization is reflected in the organization of personality, and shows how different aspects of personality are mediated by the brain's nonconscious learning and memory systems.". "Providing a context in which to understand and evaluate more purely psychological theories of personality, this volume also points the way toward more rational approaches to psychological assessment and treatment. It is a resource for mental health professionals and clinical neuroscientists, and a text for advanced courses in personality theory and clinical neuroscience."--BOOK JACKET.
