This book is written beautifully, exploring identity and diving deep into the thoughts, feelings and secrets. This book is unique with its contents as it consists of some best research papers. The book explores how our identity and personal growth is shaped. The book essentially argues that a human being is the combination of their identities and that those identities manifest themselves in different, complex ways with different aspects being dominant at any given time due to stimuli. Our identity is uniquely shaped by our past, environment and relationships. Identity plays an important role in empowering individuals to exercise their rights and responsibilities fairly and equitably in a modern society. Identity is an important element of what makes us who we are. Identity is a socially and historically constructed concept. Many people seem to spend a lot of time trying to figure out who they are, what they want, and what they believe. This is a very interesting and thought-provoking book. A good sense of identity helps children feel more positive about themselves and more open-minded to people different from themselves. We often hear about adults who struggle with their identity. People with a strong identity often stand out more and are more memorable. We learn about our own identity and the identity of others through interactions with family, peers, organizations, institutions, media and other connections we make in our everyday life. The concept of social identity marks the individual-social interface interpreted as the construction of individuals in relation to the social representations of significant groups in their society.
