Books in the Annals of Cultural Psychology series

Provides a new look at the everyday relationship between psychological processes and extraordinary aspects of ordinary phenomena. Why should we deal with ordinary things? People's life is made of everyday practical, taken-for-granted things.

Aims at further articulating and developing the cultural psychological interest in community. The book focuses on the processes through which individuals constitute communities and the processes that restrain or enable moving forward with others. This interest is necessary especially now that the world is on the move.

In very general terms, this book aims to question the ontology of Motherhood in favour of an ontogenetic approach to `life's course', where having a child represents a big transition in a woman's trajectory and where becoming (or not becoming) mother is heuristically more interesting than being a mother.
