Inhaltsangabe

Dreams puzzled early man, Greek philosophers spun elaborate theories to explain human memory and perception, Descartes postulated that the brain was filled with "animal spirits," and psychology was officially deemed a "science" in the 19th century. In this Fifth Edition, B.R. Hergenhahn demonstrates that most of the concerns of contemporary psychologists are manifestations of themes that have been part of psychology for hundreds or even thousands of years. The book's numerous photographs and pedagogical devices, along with its biographical material on key figures in psychology, engage students and facilitate their understanding of each chapter.

Críticas

"I think (Hergenhahn) is clear, not overly burdened with jargon and it carries a sense of the "professor" talking to the "student..."."It is thorough and useful for courses that cover both the short history of psychology and the long past. It is well written and contains along with the necessary facts a lot of interesting materials that make the characters come alive. It appears to be a book that wishes to stay on the cutting edge of the market and that wins it a high rating in my book."
