Self and Identity: The Basics is a jargon-free and accessible introduction that delves into the intricate ways in which other people shape our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By emphasizing selfhood as a function of identity, the book reveals that our relationships with others in our social world play a paramount role in determining who we are.
Who am I? This is a question that has plagued the minds of humans throughout history. This book aims to provide an answer to this profound query through relatable examples that demonstrate how psychological theory can be applied to our own lives. It explores the philosophical and psychological context in which ideas about selfhood have evolved and examines the profound influence that the people around us, as well as the groups we belong to, have on our identity.
Furthermore, these ideas are contextualized within real-world phenomena and behaviors, such as our language usage, intergroup conflict, and social influence. To enhance accessibility, the book includes a glossary of key terms, suggestions for further reading, and chapter summaries. This makes it an ideal introduction for students of social psychology and related fields, as well as anyone seeking to gain a deeper social psychological understanding of who they are and how others have contributed to their development.
