Description
The meaning of being human has undergone significant changes since the mid-twentieth century. In Expanding the Category "Human": Nonhumanism, Posthumanism, and Humanistic Psychology, Patrick M. Whitehead examines how these shifts impact the discipline of psychology. Whitehead argues that the metaphysical problems faced by psychologists sixty years ago are distinct from those encountered today. This shift requires a choice between protecting human integrity and engaging in open inquiry. A book that explores this complex issue is recommended for scholars and practitioners of psychology and philosophy. This thought-provoking work offers insights into the evolving nature of humanism and its relevance to contemporary psychological debates.
