It then delves into his major philosophical contributions, such as his theory of symbolic interactionism, which posits that individuals develop their sense of self through social interactions with others. Mead's ideas on the role of language, communication, and culture in shaping social behavior are also explored in depth.Throughout the book, Lee provides a clear and accessible analysis of Mead's complex ideas, drawing on primary sources such as his published works, lectures, and personal correspondence.
