Overview
About this Chapter
Who am I? Who are you? Who are we? How we answer these questions shapes how we think about, and how we behave toward, ourselves and others. And our answers to those questions are influenced by the society we live in. This chapter explores the relationship between the individual and society, and how that relationship affects the choices we make.
