Greetings, all:
In the fullness of human events I've been slated to teach low-level undergraduate "Personality" next semester, and I'm looking for textbook recommendations.
I'd love a book that exclusively talks about what personality scientists have published in peer-reviewed journals devoted to the science of personality. This seems to exclude 97% of personality textbooks, which are great for learning about the non-peer-reviewed musings of Europeans born in the 1800s. I love that stuff, but I'm looking for modern over historical.
Any recommendations?
:)
Paul
