Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

First published in 1986, The Self Imagined: Philosophical Reflection on the Social Character of Psyche explores the construction of the self, arguing that it is not an isolated entity but rather imagined and constituted through social interactions. Drawing heavily on George Herbert Mead's social behaviorism, Hanson investigates how internal mental life is inherently social, challenging individualistic views of psychology. This is a must read for students of philosophy, social psychology and psychology.
