ERIKSON, ERIK H. — Childhood and Society.
Harmondsworth, England: Penguin (Pelican), 1973. rep. "The book is an interpretation of human life on psychological lines. Using case-histories for theoretical discussion of the formative years of childhood, the author reveals human life as a delicate balance between bodily, mental and social influences. The author's accounts of field-work among Sioux and Yurok Indians, and his examination of facets of American, German and Russian characters give to this pioneer work of science the compelling interest of a universal classic." Pp.431, toning to pages. P/b with illustrated cover. G+.
