hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Zustand: Gut. X; 300 S.; 22,5 cm. Fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband m. illustr. OUmschl. Gutes Ex.; Vorsatz mit Exlibris. - Englisch. - This is a lucid, original, and crucially important reorientation of psychological theory, easily intelligible and compellingly readable to the layman. Going back beyond both Freud and the behaviourists, the author also dismisses those who are still too eager to equate humans and animals. ('Animal experiments to explain human aggression are countless. They principally succeed in demonstrating human ingenuity in. contriving laboratory conditions for animals.') Since we cannot know an animal's mind without anthropomorphic interpretation, there is little use discussing interpretations of how it works. And even comparison is useless for the purposes of psychological theory, since the quantitative difference between the minds of men and of other creatures is so great as to be qualitative. The author suggests most convincingly that feelings of hostility and hatred, and therefore actual violence, are principally aroused by threats, real or imagined, to self-esteem, not by some imaginary reservoir of aggression that needs discharge, but by an endless lust for a rewarding image of oneself.
