See all formats and editions
This theorist–by–theorist approach to personality theories explores how the personal histories, conflicts, and intentions of each theorist contributed to his or her portraits of people. The Seventh Edition has involved a significant revision including rewriting and updating of most of the chapters, the addition of a chapter on evolutionary psychology, and the recasting or change in emphasis of a number of chapters.

5.0 out of 5 stars "All the world is a stage..."
Reviewed in the United States on 14 May 2003

I have likened most psychology and counseling texts as being about as exciting to read as a Chilton's car repair manual.
Human beings are such wonderfully complex and fascinating of all of creation; so much so that one would think that the study thereof would be more engrossing and absorbing than what it actually is (in the classroom, that is).
Enter "Behind The Mask," one of the most thorough, comprehensive and insightful books I have ever read on human nature. Unlike many of my other texts, this one is a "keeper."
Scholarly without pedantry, entertaining at times, thought-provoking at others, this book should be required reading in any mental health related profession.
This is the kind of book that one will refer back to repeatedly (this book is a lot like Yalom's in this regard)as there will always be something "to chew on."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great intro book, readable, includes background on theorists lives to explain some rather out-there POVs.

Really good, concise view of the different theories of personality, from classical to modern. Concise, don't expect exhaustive, but do expect a good survey of them. Very readable.

Although the instructor did not teach from it, it does contain sufficient information.
