Self and Identity in Modern Psychology and Indian Thought, Paperback / softback Book

Self and Identity in Modern Psychology and Indian Thought Paperback / softback

Part of the Path in Psychology series

Paperback / softback

Description

East meets West in this fascinating exploration of conceptions of personal identity in Indian philosophy and modern Euro-American psychology.

Author Anand Paranjpe considers these two distinct traditions with regard to historical, disciplinary, and cultural `gaps' in the study of the self, and in the context of such theoretical perspectives as univocalism, relativism, and pluralism. The text includes a comparison of ideas on self as represented by two eminent thinkers-Erik H.

Erikson for the Western view, and Advaita Vedanta for the Indian.
