Theoretical Psychology consists of a carefully selected,
peer reviewed and edited collection of papers presented at the biennial
conference of the International Society for Theoretical Psychology held
in Calgary, Canada in 2001. Covering vital contemporary issues such as
the problems of theory in practice, self and subjectivity, narrative,
language, evolutionary theory, reductionism and other philosophical
traps, this volume brings you up to date on the theoretical work of a
large group of renowned scholars as well as new voices. The authors are
international, representing not only psychologists from North America
and Europe, but also from Asia and elsewhere in the world.
Each chapter is a well-written and concise representation of a
critical and cutting-edge problem contributing to an overall but
coherent collection worthy of continued reference for years to come.
It is an essential volume for academics, researchers, and
practitioners from fields such as the history and philosophy of
psychology, critical and social psychology, cognitive and
organizational psychology, psychotherapy and counselling, as well as
the psychology of health, gender and culture. If you are a contributor to this book, please indicate that in the comments area of the order form. You will received an email confirmation of your discount.
