The Life Cycle Completed: Extended Edition – A Comprehensive Guide to Human Development
This extended edition of renowned psychologist Erik Erikson’s final work offers a complete overview of the human life cycle, with a crucial addition by his wife and collaborator, Joan Erikson. While Erik Erikson’s original theory outlined eight stages of development, this edition addresses the ninth stage: very old age. As life expectancy increases, this stage holds growing significance for those concerned with the quality of daily life in later years. Joan Erikson, who co-developed the original eight-stage concept and wrote this edition while in her nineties, masterfully explores the specific challenges and joys of advanced age. She expands on Erik’s vision, detailing the unique difficulties faced by the very old and emphasizing the vital roles of hope and faith for those in their eighties and nineties. The book also revisits the concept of wisdom, offering a deeper understanding of human development across the entire lifespan. Price: 861.00 RUR
