PPS Member's Profile: Donald Polkinghorne

Hello, my name is Don. This first version of my Philopsychy Society Member's Profile has been on the web since Nov 4, 1996. I am a professor of counseling psychology at the Univ of Southern California. I am interested in postmodern thought in relation to self-narratives. You can contact me by e-mail at polkingh@mizar.usc.edu, or by conventional post at:

2998 South Hoover Street
Los Angeles, CA 90007
USA

I do not yet have a WWW home page.

Something I've written that might be of some interest to you is called Narrative Knowing and the Human Sciences. It is commercially published (as a printed book) by SUNY Press, 1988. It is not available in computerize form.

For the time being, I do not wish to trade the above for writings by other Society members.

Finally, just so you can get to know me a little, here's something special I'd like you to know:
I am particularly interested in the relation of embodiment theories such as Merleau-Ponty and Social Constructionist theory.
