About the Author
What People are Saying About This
This book is the best, most thorough exploration of southern identity and the complications of race through the prism of psychologywithout a hint of pseudo-scientific jargon. Anne Rose is a masterful writer and deep thinker, as this study shows so well. Psychology and Selfhood in the Segregated South must be acclaimed as a major landmark in the probing of what W. J. Cash called 'the mind of the South.'Bertram Wyatt-Brown, author of The Shaping of Southern Culture: Honor, Grace, and War, 1760s-1890s
In a fascinating analysis, Rose explores the relationship between an emerging scientific enterprise and the regional culture within which it developed. In addition to its substantive contribution, Psychology and Selfhood in the Segregated South is well written and extensively researched, weaving together information from an impressive range of sources, and leavening the analysis with illustrative histories of individuals. This interdisciplinary work should be of interest to scholars in history and in the social sciences.William Tucker, author of The Funding of Scientific Racism: Wickliffe Draper and the Pioneer Fund
