This collection of nine papers aims to broaden the field of cultural psychology in two distinct manners. The first is to address the array of cultural influences that influence psychological processes beyond simple issues of mere national origin to take into account such influences as professional cultures, historical changes in culture, social class, geographical regions, political culture, frontier settlement, religion, and gender and the second is to interweave into these discussions considerations of new psychological theories of cultural origins and development ranging from biological evolution to divisions of labor and other aspects of social class.
