 Excellent new book edited by Dan McAdams, Ruthellen Josselson, and Amia Leiblich January 9, 2007

This edited book on narrative and story contains many interesting examples of research and ways of analyzing and presenting work using story and life history narratives in different ways for creating greater understanding. As a researcher and a professor, I have found all of the books by these authors useful in my work and good reading as well and recommend them. Many of the contributions and the informants are Israeli.
 Highly recommended for its educated understanding and erudite presentation July 9, 2006

Knowledgeably compiled and expertly co-authored by the team of Dan P. McAdams (Professor of Human Development and Social Policy and Director of the Foley Center for the Study of Lives at Northwestern University), Ruthellen Josselson (Professor of Psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem), and Amia Lieblich (Professor of Psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem) Identity And Story: Creating Self In Narrative is an in-depth examination of self-identity and the profound nature by which the human psyche creates and maintains an identity for itself. Identity And Story provides a thoughtful and thought-provoking introduction to a comprehensive exploration of what one might psychologically encounter while in the course of their self-identification processes utilizing narrative situations between researcher and the narrator, as well as a research-based exploration and analysis of the individuals telling those stories. A seminal contribution to professional and academic library Psychology Studies reference collections, Identity And Story is very highly recommended for its educated understanding and erudite presentation.
