Descripción
Sumario:The first edition of this book brought difficult questions about selfhood together with equally awkward issues of power and the 'social'. Not since Mead or Goffman, perhaps, had this been attempted in such a useful way, and in such an assured and accessible text. This completely reworked second edition retains all of these virtues, and takes the original analysis into new territory, not least with new chapters on gender and class.
