Description

Historical and Conceptual Issues in Psychology, 3rd Edition, explores the key historical and conceptual issues in psychology, providing a unique and engaging introduction to the discipline. The text draws on a broad range of issues and themes, from ancient Greece to modern debates, to help you understand the philosophical context from which psychology has emerged. Every chapter reflects the newest findings and insights in the field, with a focus on those findings that have not stood up to replication tests. The book also includes a new chapter on the replication crisis, highlighting the importance of open science practices in scientific research. Excerpts from original texts, profiles of key figures, and fascinating examples from around the world are woven throughout the chapters, making this a thought-provoking read. With myth-busting boxes and discussion questions in every chapter, you'll be encouraged to reflect and think critically about the issues raised. This book is a valuable resource for undergraduate psychology students and anyone interested in the development of the discipline from its ancient origins to its current standing.
