Autorenporträt
Come psicologo clinico interessato tanto ai fenomeni psicologici quanto all'influenza delle situazioni, l'autore propone un approccio integrativo alla psicologia, attingendo a molteplici contributi dall'antropologia, dalla sociologia e dalle scienze della vita per sviluppare una comprensione decisamente moderna del soggetto umano.
