Abstract

This review gives a detailed and carefully reasoned analysis of the monographic study of Erik Erikson's theoretical constructs in the context of his own life story. The review is obviously unbiased and reveals both strong and weak sides of the monograph, the latter mostly related to the authors' personal attitudes towards the works of Erik Erikson and his personality.
