About psychology essays at the crossroads of history theory and philosophy /

Synopsis

Demonstrating how psychologists use theory, philosophy, and history to illuminate the subjects they study, this book explores both the obstacles and benefits of integrating these perspectives into contemporary Western psychology. It offers a timely survey of current ideas at the crossroads of these disciplines and represents new ideas about how psychology can respond to changes on what it means to be human and on how to further this knowledge. This book presents contemporary thinking by noted scholars who have made significant contributions to a re-visioning of psychology.
