Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Misbehaviorists, Pseudo-Science and the Modern Temper' is a sharp-witted and provocative critique of the behavioral psychology and scientific skepticism that gained prominence in the early 20th century. Written during a period of rapid intellectual shift, Harvey Wickham takes aim at the influential thinkers of his era, including John B. Watson, Sigmund Freud, and Albert Edward Wiggam. Through a blend of humor, irony, and philosophical rigor, Wickham examines the modern temper and its tendency to reduce complex human experience to mere biological or mechanistic functions.The work challenges the notion that traditional morality and human agency have been rendered obsolete by the new sciences of the day. Wickham argues that much of what is presented as objective, empirical truth is actually a form of pseudo-science that ignores the deeper realities of the human spirit. By dissecting the popular theories of the 1920s, the author provides a spirited defense of common sense and humanism against the rising tide of scientific determinism. 'The Misbehaviorists, Pseudo-Science and the Modern Temper' serves as a significant historical document, capturing the intellectual backlash against materialism and providing a fascinating look at the development of psychological thought and its impact on modern society.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Misbehaviorists' is a sharp and provocative critique of the leading psychological and scientific movements of the early twentieth century. Written by Harvey Wickham, the work examines the rise of behaviorism, psychoanalysis, and various forms of modern materialism that were reshaping the understanding of the human mind and soul. Through a series of analytical essays, Wickham scrutinizes the theories of prominent figures such as John B. Watson, Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, and William McDougall, challenging their conclusions and the broader social implications of their work.The book explores the tension between traditional views of human nature and the emerging 'scientific' approaches that sought to reduce human experience to biological impulses and conditioned reflexes. Wickham employs a witty and often skeptical tone to address the perceived shortcomings of these modern ideologies, arguing against the dehumanizing effects of strict determinism. As a significant historical document in the field of intellectual history, 'The Misbehaviorists' provides an insightful look into the cultural and philosophical debates surrounding the birth of modern psychology. It remains a compelling resource for readers interested in the history of science, philosophy, and the evolution of psychological thought.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
