Essays on Social Psychology
ISBN: 9780765800824 / Angielski / Twarda / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Essays on Social Psychology, Mead's "first" book, clearly locates him within a significantly different tradition and network than...

He examines such questions as why German scholars tried to deny Germany's obvious guilt in the war, and what explained the remarkable resolve of the French army to persevere in the face of...

For a two week period in 1956, residents in the vicinity of Taipei, Taiwan, lived in fear that they would be the next victims of a crazed villain who was prowling the streets and slashing people at random with a razor or similar weapon.

A thorough investigation revealed however, that: five slashings were innocent false reports, seven were self-inflicted cuts, eight were due to cuts rather than razors, and one was complete fantasy.
