Description

Understand the deeper motivations behind genealogical research with The Psychology of Family History by Routledge. This book investigates why people feel driven to uncover their ancestral pedigrees and examines whether family historians share specific personality traits, demographics, or family characteristics. Through a blend of psychological theory and research from the humanities, the text explores the real-world experiences of those charting family trees. You will read about the insights, dilemmas, and the often surprising or disturbing outcomes that arise during a search for roots. The findings are supported by extensive survey data collected from over 800 amateur genealogists, providing a unique look into the human side of ancestry work. Whether you are a researcher or interested in family dynamics, this book offers a deep look into the mental and emotional aspects of tracing a lineage.
