Críticas

.,."an excellent introduction to a new and significant area of research for advanced undergraduates, graduate students and faculty in psychology, human development, and gerontology."--"Choice" .,."an impressive work, which can serve as a text for students of personality and life-course development, a source of insight for clinicians, and a challenge for researchers."--"Readings" .,."addresses students in courses on personality research, life span development, and the psychology of aging. The book is engaging and will be convincing to those who believe that personality is what personality tests measure and to those who believe that personality is what personality tests measure and to those who welcome a clean and mean' psychometric theorectomy to unclutter the complexities of the personality domain....a first-rate, optimistic presentation of the research process that can lead to a medical understanding of a behavioral disorder....Professionals should keep a copy on their shelves and encourage their patients to read it. It is an exemplary contribution to the literature that will mark the decade of the brain."--"Contemporary Psychology" "In this writer's opinion it is not likely that one could expect to find a work which represents a demarcation point in the development of a paradigm for a branch of science. McCrae and Costa may have succeeded in doing just that!....McCare and Costa have provided a clear, exciting, new direction. This book is recommended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in the varied fields of gerontology. Faculty members and researchers should find it a book they will keep on their shelves and in their briefcases."--"Experimental AgingResearch"
