Recensioner i media

"Vividly picture, frame, and imagine an exploratory vivisection of an entire human brain by 18 or so individuals from different specializations, research areas, and training levels doing talking points as each cuts, cleans, rinses, exposes, or excises the above at will into 23 overlapping chunks. If you can mentally formulate this image and want to know more, then Psychological Anthropology: A Reader on Self in Culture is a book for you." (PsycCritiques, December 2010)
