Features: Narrative psychology proposes that psychology should study people's life stories. Stories themselves reflect the process of individual psychological development and change. Personality and the self also exist through the process of narrating life stories. When we want to share our inner feelings with others, we tell our own stories; when we want to understand others' inner feelings, we listen to their stories. If you want to know someone well, the best way is to understand their life story. Life unfolds in stories, and human nature is expressed through stories. This book is one of the series on new developments in psychology. Based on a wealth of hand materials, the author explores the background and origins of narrative psychology, elaborates on its theoretical foundations and research methods, introduces the application research of narrative psychology in fields such as psychological therapy, and discusses its contributions, academic criticisms, and future development trends. The book has a clear structure, distinct viewpoints, comprehensive information, and fluent writing. It is believed that readers will broaden their horizons, understand the new dynamics and directions in psychology, enhance their knowledge, and lay a theoretical foundation for innovative psychological research by reading this book.
