Rethinking Psychology: A Critical Examination of Science and Pseudoscience By Brian Hughes, Macmillan Education UK, 2016. In an era where unempirical data is increasingly used to justify scientific claims, this book offers a critical examination of the complex relationship between psychology, science, and pseudoscience. The author explores the impact on the philosophy behind psychological research methods and examines controversial practices and biases in the field that threaten its integrity. Hughes provides a thought-provoking analysis of historical and contemporary debates regarding psychological methods and research, making this book an essential guide for anyone looking to understand these complex issues. Written for students and academics alike, as well as those interested in psychology and its applications.
