The value of psychology as a science has been challenged in
phenomenology and in other epistemological trends. The main
objective of this book is to draw the attention of students of
human and animal behaviour to important achievements in
phenomenological psychology and comparative physiology which are
mostly overlooked, although they offer a genuine approach to
subjective experience in relation to behavioural regulations. The
work of Brentano, Stumpf, Husserl, Politzer, Katz, Michotte,
Buytendijk and many others is analysed from this epistemological
standpoint. The significance of the phenomenological approach for
the biology of behaviour is discussed. The meaning of Sherrington's
physiology of the behavioural field is evaluated in the same
framework. Basic reading for students of experimental psychology,
comparative psychology and ethology, this book will appeal
particularly to those interested in the philosophy of psychology
and biology. Originally published in 1977.
