Abstract
The article discusses such aspects of life history use as: What is a life history? What kinds of problems and what kinds of people are best suited for the use of the life history? What motivates people to write life histories? Does the collection procedure affect the contents? Does life history material speak for itself? How does one analyze life history material? Some guiding principles for the analysis of such material is suggested.Keywords
