A History of Psychology
From Antiquity to Modernity: International Edition
Thomas H. Leahey
Begins tracking psychology from the development of folk psychology as the key adaptation of humans at the dawn of history. It then traces the Classical, medieval, and early modern periods to present day psychology. The text covers scientific, applied, and professional psychology. A Martian anthropologist who chooses to study psychology as a science and social institution is imagined throughout the text. The Martian periodically interrupts the text with blogs (text boxes) commenting on psychology from a very outside perspective. A blog Web site will be established when the book is published to continue these comments in a dialogue with students and others who take an interest in the history and nature of psychology. MySearchLab with eText can be packaged with this text. For courses on history of psychology.
