Yair Neuman, PhD, is a professor in the Department of Education at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel. He is the author of Introduction to Computational Cultural Psychology, and his work has been published extensively in leading journals for various disciplines including psychology, psychoanalysis, and information sciences.
“Lively, informed, accessible, and intellectually stimulating. Yair Neuman presents a fluid theory of personality as multiply constructed, contextual, and continually in flux.”
— Amy Schwartz Cooney, PhD, National Institute for the Psychotherapies
“The synthesis of psychodynamic and biological perspectives on personality is useful, insightful, and original. Neuman moves smartly and persuasively among thinkers such as Bowlby, McWilliams, and Dylan Thomas.”
— Marshall Alcorn, PhD, George Washington University
“Yair Neuman has produced a highly original book, full of scholarly insight and imaginative understanding. As he applies ideas about personality to the works of Shakespeare, he moves easily from psychology to literature and back again. This is a book to enjoy and learn from.”
— Michael Billig, PhD, author of Freudian Repression: Conversation Creating the Unconscious
