"Trailblazing history. . . . After presenting a brilliant kaleidoscope of 18th- and 19th-century writings, Reed concludes that philosophy broke away from psychology, not the reverse, and that psychology is the poorer for it. . . . Reed uncovers and makes accessible an intellectual treasure-trove that will change the way we think about the last 250 years."-Library Journal "Intellectually challenging . . . informative and rewarding."-Kirkus Reviews "Reed is a person who thinks in an uncluttered way as well as writes so. His history is a splendid achievement beautifully crafted, sensibly and wisely thought through."-William Kessen In this lively and original account of psychology's formative years, the late Edward S. Reed describes the attempts of nineteenth-century thinkers and practitioners to make psychology into a science. Setting psychological developments within the social, religious, and literary contexts of the time, Reed counters the widespread belief that psychology emerged from philosophy and shows that the reverse is true.

Summary; Early in the nineteenth century, psychology was considered a science of the soul; by the end of the century, it had abandoned the soul to become a science of the mind, says Edward Reed. In this lively and original account of psychology's formative years, Reed relates the failures and successes of the attempts of nineteenth-century thinkers and practitionersincluding philosophers, theologians, medical workers, mesmerists, and even poets - to make psychology into a science. From Soul to Mind introduces a cast that includes not only well-known scientists and philosophers (Kant, Reid, Darwin, James) but also figures important in their time who are largely forgotten today (R. H. Lotze in Germany, G. H. Lewes in Britain) and literary notables (Mary Shelley, E. T. A. Hoffmann, Edgar Allan Poe). Countering the widespread belief that psychology is the offspring of philosophy, Reed contends that modern philosophy arose when academic. philosophers sought to distinguish themselves from psychologists. This account of psychology's formative years tells the story of the failures and successes of 19th-century thinkers and practitioners to make psychology into a science. It also situates psychological developments within the social, religious, and literary contexts of the time. Subjects; 19th century. Psychology History 19th century. Psychology history.
