Rezensionen

"Social Constructionism is a great book, and has been on my recommended reading lists for a long time. It's been an obvious hit with students as my copy has gone missing."

- Andy Lock, School of Psychology, Massey University, New Zealand

"This book is an excellent introduction to social constructionism, an important critical position in psychology. Its many strengths include its impressive clarity and concision, which make the book accessible to undergraduates, and its accuracy and sophistication in its accounts of complex theoretical positions, meaning that the readership can extend (and has extended) to postgraduate students and to academics moving into this area of work."

- Stephen Frosh, Department of Psychosocial Studies, Birkbeck, University of London, UK
