In Resituating Humanistic Psychology, Whitehead and Groth urge psychologists to return to the aims of the psychology as it first emerged. To illustrate the field’s turn from its initial aims they trace the growth of the discipline from its conception in the late 1800s to the humanistic revolution of the 1960s to the current period of social unrest.
In Resituating Humanistic Psychology, Patrick Whitehead and Miles Groth urge psychologists to return to the aims and goals of psychology as it first emerged. Illustrating how the field has veered from its initial conception, Whitehead and Groth trace its growth from the late 1800s to the humanistic revolution of the 1960s to the current period of social unrest. Whitehead and Groth touch on Wilhelm Wundt’s and William James’s vision for the field; the lasting changes made to clinical psychology, methods of investigation, and psychology of learning in the 1960s; and the effects of isolation, extreme connectivity, and social politics on psychology today. This book is recommended for scholars and students of psychology, history, and philosophy.
