520    "This original theory of personality is based on the 
       concept that there are many workable ways by which 
       individuals can construct their world. George Kelly's 
       starting point and basic premise is that people's 
       processes are psychologically channeled by the ways they 
       anticipate events rather than by the ways they react to 
       them. We develop new means of overcoming obstacles; we are,
       therefore, neither prisoners of our environment nor 
       victims of our past. In Dr. Kelly's groundbreaking theory,
       the patterns of our make-up, which he calls constructs, 
       are the key to changing old patterns. Each person 
       anticipates events differently, and Dr. Kelly shows how we
       can begin to understand each person's unique constructs. 
       In this way, a person is enabled to create alternative 
       constructions--finding a sense of meaning in life, 
       regaining control over his or her environment, and 
       establishing new roads to mental health. This volume 
       consists of the first three chapters of Kelly's two-volume
       work The Psychology of Personal Constructs."--Publisher
