In this illuminating comparative 1985 study of six nations, Professor Peabody focuses on how different nationalities have different psychological characteristics. Through extensive empirical studies, the author compares and contrasts this evidence with social scientific accounts of 'national character' and concludes that psychological characteristics of different nationalities do differ in fundamental ways.
