Putting Psychol In Its Place: An Introduction from a Critical Historical Perspective - Tapa dura

First published in 1996. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

Psychology is a relatively recent and rapidly developing discipline. Perhaps the most significant changes have taken place over the last decade. This text gives historical perspective to key issues in contemporary psychology such as psychology and women, and psychology and race, as well as more traditional topics like behaviourism and Gestalt psychology. It is aimed specially at undergraduate students but will also appeal to postgraduates and academics interested in gaining a broad-based, issue-led historical perspective to their discipline.
