  • Represents a unique approach to studying the nature of psychology by combining historical controversies with contemporary debates within the discipline
  • Sets out a clear view of psychology as a reflexive human science, embedded in and shaped by particular socio-historical contexts
  • Written in an accessible style using a range of pedagogical features - such as set learning outcomes, self-test questions, and further reading suggestions at the end of each chapter
