520 8 What does it mean to be an adult? In this original and
compelling work, John Russon answers that question by
leading us through a series of rich reflections on the
psychological and social dimensions of adulthood and by
exploring some of the deepest ethical and existential
issues that confront human life: intimacy, responsibility,
aging, and death. Using his knowledge of the history of
philosophy along with the combined resources of psychology,
sociology, and anthropology, he explores the behavioral
challenges of becoming an adult and examines the intimate
relationships that are integral to healthy development. He
also studies our experiences of time and space, which
address both aging and the crucial role that our material
environments play in the formation of our personalities.
Of special note is Russon?s provocative assessment of the
economic and political contexts of contemporary adult life
and the distinctive problems they pose. Engaging and
accessible, Adult Life is for anyone seeking the profound
lessons our human culture has learned aboutliving well.
