Taking philosophical principles as a point of departure, this book
provides essential distinctions for thinking through the history
and systems of Western psychology. The book is concisely designed
to help readers navigate through the length and complexity found in
history of psychology textbooks. From Plato to beyond
Post-Modernism, the author examines the choices and commitments
made by theorists and practitioners of psychology and discusses the
philosophical thinking from which they stem. What kind of science
is psychology? Is structure, function, or methodology foremost in
determining psychology's subject matter? Psychology, as the
behaviorist views it, is not the same as the psychoanalyst's view
of it, or the existentialist's, so how may contemporary psychology
philosophically-sustain both pluralism and incommensurability? This
book will be of great value to students and scholars of the history
of psychology.
