This highly original book explores the idea and potential of
psychology in the context of ethical theory, and the idea of ethics
in the context of psychology. In so doing, it not only interrogates
how we come to understand ethics and notions of right behaviour,
but also questions the discipline of psychology and how it
functions in the 21st century. Neill turns psychology inside out,
controversially suggesting that psychology no longer exists as we
know it. He proposes a rebirth of psychology based on an intricate
and detailed examination of who we really are, and how we come to
structure this idea of ourselves. Taking the idea of ethics
seriously, Neill allows us to see psychology in a totally new
light, addressing key points, such as: The inadequacy of psychology
to address the question of ethics throughout history. Why thinking
through the question of ethics necessarily brings us into
confrontation with a question of psychology. What we actually do
when we do psychology and how, via a serious consideration of
ethics we might do this differently and better. Ethics and
Psychology presents readers with a new and potentially productive
understanding of both ethics and psychology and will appeal to
anyone active within and critically engaged with the field.
