  The study of self is a growing concern within psychology and related disciplines, particularly in social and clinical psychology, psychiatry and personality studies. The growth of interest in identity and self concepts, and their implications for emotional processes, cognition, social behaviour and psychological disorder are reflected in the major sections of this volume. The editors' introductions to each section aim to emphasize the coherent picture of self and identity processes which emerge. The themes of conceptual exploration of individual experience, and of the individual/society interface, are fully explored.
