{"product_id":"protean-self-robert-jay-lifton-9780465064212","title":"Protean Self: Human Resilience in an Age of Fragmentation","description":"\"Proteanism\"--or the protean self--describes a psychological phenomenon integral to our times. We live in a world marked by breathtaking historical change and instantaneous global communication. Our lives seem utterly unpredictable: there are few absolutes. Rather than collapsing under these threats and pulls, Robert Jay Lifton tells us, the self turns out to be remarkably resilient. Like the Greek god Proteaus, who was able to change shape in response to crisis, we create new psychological combinations, immersing ourselves in fresh and surprising endeavors over our lifetimes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Jay Lifton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0465064213\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780465064212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Basic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/04\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.16h x 6.02w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/12\/1994","brand":"Robert Jay Lifton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995540685055,"sku":"9780465064212","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7ecfa820-20d0-4cb7-acac-e513dd339225.jpg?v=1683336396","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/protean-self-robert-jay-lifton-9780465064212","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
