Aprašymas

Being an "interactionist" approach to social psychology, this book deals with people, not as isolated individuals, but as participants in groups. The aim of this book is to help the reader develop an orderly perspective-- a consistent point of view from which to see his own conduct and that of his fellows. Propositions about behaviour seen from this viewpoint are presented, and relevant evidence, both descriptive and experimental, is examined and evaluated.

The author draws upon the two great intellectual traditions of pragmatism and psychoanalysis, and attempts to integrate them into a single, consistent approach. All concepts are reduced to behaviouristic terms-- defined always in terms of what men do. In this way, it is possible to draw freely on these two schools, and at the same time, avoid much of the jargon of both.
