Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A leading text for over 20 years, covering all major theories. Provides historical settings, gives a brief biography of the theorist, discusses features in depth, describes characteristic investigations generated by the theory, and ends with a critical evaluation of each theory. New chapters examine contemporary psychoanalytic theory, featuring the work of Erik Erikson, and Eastern personality theory, featuring the personality theory inherent in Buddhism.
