"History and Systems of Psychology provides an engaging introduction to the rich story
of psychology's past. Retaining the clarity and accessibility praised by readers of
earlier editions, this classic textbook provides a chronological history of psychology
from the pre-Socratic Greeks to contemporary systems, research, and applications.
The new edition also features expanded coverage of Eastern as well as Western traditions,
influential women in psychology, professional psychology in clinical, educational,
and social settings, and new directions in twenty-first century psychology as a cognitive
and a positive science. Assuming little prerequisite knowledge, the authors discuss
the people, places, and concepts that have shaped psychology's story, and show that
we remain fascinated by the same enduring questions that confronted our ancestors
- namely, our wonder at our subjectivity and consciousness of self. The seventh edition
is fully supported by robust pedagogical features, instructor resources, and a companion
website to aid student learning" ; "History and Systems of Psychology provides an
