About this book
Reviews
“Hannush’s work is a psychoeducational tour de force on psychosocial maturation. … The reader will appreciate that each chapter as a dedicated reference page(s) … . This scholarly text would be excellent support for a graduate-level course in psychosocial maturation as well as lifespan development. … Without doubt, the reader will enjoy much wisdom in this book. … This instructive, comprehensive, and perceptive book thus ends with optimism and hope for our enduring and maturing selves … .” (Robert McInerney, Journal of Phenomenological Psychology, Vol. 53 (1), 2022)
“This book is long overdue. Stage theory in all its forms has dominated and skewed the way human development has been conceptualised for far too long and this book repositions human development as a life-long dialectical process. In doing so, the author draws on a wide range of sources and by using everyday terminology he manages to make it easy to relate to and apply to everyday life.”—Martin Adams, author of An Existential Approach to Human Development (2018).
