Product Description

Product Description

For decades Erik H. Erikson's concept of the stages of human development has deeply influenced the field of contemporary psychology. Here, with new material by Joan M. Erikson, is an expanded edition of his final work. The Life Cycle Completed eloquently closes the circle of Erikson's theories, outlining the unique rewards and challenges - for both individuals and society - of very old age.

Format:Paperback
This book is full of interesting ideas, and very good theory, but is rendered almost impossible to read by a writing style which is overloaded with complicated and technical words. And I am certainly not a person who generally needs my reading material simplified.
The ideas expressed in this book are useful, and will stay with me, but I am very pleased to have finished reading it!

Interesting and insightful book! Erickson adds an additional stage to his model. The book is well worth the read as it provides insights into Erickson's later thinking.

The 9th Stage of Identity Development 19 May 2009
By Kimberly Greyson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love the idea of a 9th Stage of "Transcendance" (yes, it's spelled "dance") with the virtue of "faith". Joan Erikson does hint at a certain element of pessimism over the deterioration of previous stages earned, going downhill in old age. However, in the end she speaks of the 9th stage that more than makes up for those losses. I think this stage could get a little more attention ..... transcendance and faith are worth teaching alongside the other 8 stages.
Erikson Crisis 31 Oct 2011
By Cavett - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love this book! I picked it up for pennies on Amazon, and will keep in handy forever.

Do not settle for second-hand information about Erikson theory. This book is an easy read, and brings a simple understanding to the Erikson stages and crisis.

I prefer Bowen's work, but for behavioral theory assignments, this is the best money you will spend.
Good. 27 Oct 2011

The book is a difficult read but I needed it for a psych class so... It came perfectly new, exactly what i needed and what was advertised. Would definitely recommend.
