From the Back Cover:
ALTERING FATE will rattle the fixtures--in psychology, public policy, and in daily life. Here is a provocative and compelling challenge to the popular presumption of fixed paths of development (Kenneth Gergen, PhD, author of THE SATURATED SELF). A stunning book....Lewis argues with skill, with detailed knowledge, and with a deep sense of moral responsibility. This book speaks...to anybody trying to understand how the theories of development we construct change not only our public policies, but our personal interaction with the young. Bravo! (Jerome Bruner, PhD, author of ACTS OF MEANING).
