A MONUMENTAL WORK IN THE STUDY OF HUMAN CHARACTER AND ALL OF ITS COMPLEXITIES  \u003cp\u003eThe Handbook of Personology and Psychopathology offers a state-of-the-art overview of a burgeoning field of inquiry that addresses the full spectrum of human personality and functioning, from normal to abnormal. Inspired by the seminal contributions and achievements of Theodore Millon, a major figure in the psychology profession and architect of a comprehensive theory of personology and psychopathology, this volume integrates knowledge from many scientific domains to provide a better grasp of the whole person.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTheories explaining human behavior abound, yet too often the theoretical perspective—be it focused on specific phenomena or global aspects of functioning—yields a description that falls short of the whole person. To fully understand both normal and abnormal behavior, forward-looking thinkers and practitioners spanning several different schools of thought are considering new, more integrative approaches. Theodore Millon's work in personology and psychopathology has charted a pioneering path towards a coherent system for understanding how people develop and live their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis exciting new book reflects Millon's blueprint for an integrated clinical science, linking theory, classification, assessment, and therapy.
