This resource brings together late 1990s views on the nature of self-awareness, offering diverse ways of conceptualizing the self from biological, and cultural perspectives. A fundamental theme throughout the book is an understanding of how self-awareness relates not only to individuation, but also to one's awareness of other selves and how one identifies as part of a group. Chapters trace the developnment of self-awareness across the lifespan, including its role in education and its adaptation to real-world concepts.
