Heroism and Human Development

Beschreibung

This book examines developmental theory in light of heroic narrative and argues that such theory should be adjusted to accommodate the experience of those who are, in many ways, our principal role models, examining figures such as Jane Austen, T. E. Lawrence, Winston Churchill and George S. Patton, Jr.
