Summary:
"This volume takes the cultural embeddedness of behaviour as its
central theme. This theme is elaborated in a variety of cultural
contexts including India, China and Mexico. Besides theoretical
issues, the contributors cover a wide range of topics in the areas of
developmental psychology, community mental health, the psychology of
language, organisational behaviour and school psychology." "Examining
issues of human and social development primarily from indigenous and
multidisciplinary perspectives, this volume will interest all those
engaged in an understanding of the relationship between culture and
human behaviour. It will be of particular interest to psychologists,
anthropologists, sociologists, psychiatrists, educationists, and
those engaged in cultural studies and the behavioural
sciences."--BOOK JACKET.
