Recenzje

"If one has an interest in how psychologists understand and use stories to reveal what people know and how they understand their own lives and the lives of others, this volume is a very useful source. In particular, the research programs and related literature detailed by the commentators are impressive for the range of topics studied through obtaining narrative accounts of participants."
—Minds and Machines

"...timely in its application, novel in its approach, and precise in its explication."
—International Journal of Psychology
