First published in 1989, On Psychological Language and the
Physiomorphic Basis of Human Nature was written to provide a new
and controversial analysis of the nature of psychological language.
The book argues that psychological concepts of all kinds are
ultimately derived from concepts about the external world, so that
'human nature' is nothing more than 'internalized Nature'. It draws
attention to problems regarding the nature of linguistic reference,
and puts forward a route for considering human psychological
evolution, raising questions about the nature of psychology as a
discipline and its relationship with the physical sciences. This
'physiomorphic theory' challenged ways of thinking about
psychological language at the time of original publication.
Interdisciplinary in its approach, On Psychological Language and
the Physiomorphic Basis of Human Nature has enduring relevance for
those with an interest in psychology, anthropology, philosophy, and
linguistics.
